Grandma’s Recipe Box Series.  For more about grandma’s recipes read my post here.

Outside of one well known restaurant in Sidney, Ohio, I have never seen this pie anywhere.  I have searched for years to find a way to make this pie.  We recently discovered this recipe in my grandmother’s recipe box and it is a dead ringer for the pie at that certain restaurant.  It is actually very easy, and you will not be disappointed.   For the printable recipe, scroll down to the bottom of the page.

Ingredients:

  • 1 un-baked pie shell in a 9 inch pie pan (I like the old standby Crisco recipe)
  • 1 Cup sugar
  • 4 heaping Tablespoons of all purpose flour
  • 1 Cup heavy cream
  • 1 Cup whole milk

Directions:

  1. Pre-heat oven to 300 degrees (yes, you read that right)

  2. In a small bowl whisk together sugar and flour
  3. pour the sugar/flour mixture into the un-baked pie shell and spread it evenly across the bottom of the pie shell.
  4. Slowly pour cream and then milk over the dry mix.  DO NOT stir.

  5. Put the pie pan on a baking sheet, and place in the 300 degree oven for 2 hours.
  6. Cool to room temperature on a wire rack and then refrigerate.

It’s really that easy, and soooooooo good.

    1. Hi Susan – this was one of my earlier recipes before I bought the recipe software for the blog. I’ve been working my way back through the older recipes to add the print capability. Check back soon, I’ll put this one at the top of the list to update!

  1. You’re talking about the Spot in Sidney! Love their pie! The crust is horrible but the pie is amazing like Grandma’s! Thank you!

  2. Yes The Spot !!! My grandmother started working there when she was younger and helped run it until she retired! My mother also worked there for a short. I have almost 😉 the exact recipe. However, she always used her finger to mix the ingredients very gently together once placed into the pie shell !! Some of their stuff isn’t the same anymore , but all restaurants eventually change things ups! Thanks for sharing I always love reading what others add to it !!

  3. Mr Grandmother Josie Dornbier ran the Children’s home in New Lexingtn Ohio. She would mad “old Fashion Cream Pie.” for my Father Jim Anderson when he did well in School. It has a handful of Brown Sugar in it . You also dot the piecrust with 1/2 a stick of butter and stir with your fingers.
    Pie Crust, 1/2 stick of butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, handful flour, handful of sugar. 1/2 pint milk, 1/2 pint of cream stir with fingers.
    Bake: I’m not sure what temp or how long?
