-PASTRY-
1 c Flour
1 ts Baking powder
1/2 Egg (take 1 egg, beat it up
-a bit and then use half of
-this)
2 oz Butter
1/4 c Sugar salt
FILLING
1 1/2 Eggs (you use the other half
-of the egg that contributed
-to the pastry)
1 1/4 tb Flour
1 1/4 tb Cornflour
2 1/4 c Milk (this is 1 pint)
1 ts Vanilla flavouring
1 ts Butter
Pastry: Beat together butter & sugar. Add egg, and then add in dry
ingredients. You should get a crumbly mix. Press this into a pie dish and
bake at 350F for 20 minutes.
Filling: Boil the milk. In another bowl/pot (depending on whether you are
using a microwave or cooker), beat the egg and sugar. Add the flour &
cornflour to the egg/sugar mixture and beat this together. Add the milk and
cook till it thickens. (This works well in a microwave oven). Remove from
heat and add vanilla & butter. Beat well, and pour into the baked shell.
Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg, and cool. (This is best refrigerated.)
