  1. INGREDIENTS:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    For the crust:
    \n1 pre-baked pie crust (9-inch)<\/p>\n

    For the filling:
    \n1 1\/2 cups brown sugar
    \n1\/3 cup all-purpose flour
    \n1\/4 teaspoon salt
    \n1 1\/2 cups whole milk
    \n1\/2 cup unsalted butter
    \n4 egg yolks, beaten
    \n1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/p>\n

    For the meringue:
    \n4 egg whites
    \n1\/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
    \n5 tablespoons granulated sugar<\/p>\n

    DIRECTIONS:<\/p>\n

    Prepare the filling: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine brown sugar, flour, and salt. Gradually stir in milk and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Add butter and stir until melted.<\/p>\n

    Temper the egg yolks by slowly pouring some of the hot mixture into the yolks, stirring constantly.<\/p>\n

    Then, pour the tempered yolks back into the saucepan. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.<\/p>\n

    Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust. Set aside to cool slightly while you make the meringue.<\/p>\n

    Make the meringue: In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.<\/p>\n

    Spread the meringue over the butterscotch filling, ensuring it reaches the edges to seal.<\/p>\n

    Bake in a preheated 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C) oven for 12-15 minutes or until the meringue is golden brown.<\/p>\n

    Allow the pie to cool completely before serving to let the filling set.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
