After reading a blog entry over at Homesick Texan about peanut butter pie, I definitely wanted to try some. Only problem? The recipe she used came from a now-defunct eatery in Oak Cliff, Texas, called Gennie's Bishop Grill. Luckily for me, I was still able to find a copy of their self-published recipe booklet on Amazon. For a price, of course.
The pie was delicious. It's basically a peanut butter pudding inside a pie shell. Then you whip up some thick whipped cream for the top. It's a diner pie specialty, and it's sooooo good.
Peanut Butter Pie
From Gennie's Bishop Grill
3 large egg yolks
Pinch of sea salt
2½ cups whole milk
¾ cup granulated sugar
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
½ cup smooth peanut butter
Blind-baked pie shell
1 cup whipped cream
½ cup roasted peanuts
Combine egg yolks, salt, and milk. Mix well. Place in heavy saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring until warm. Combine sugar and flour; gradually add milk mixture, stirring constantly until thickened. Boil 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla and peanut butter. Let cool slightly.
Pour filling into cooled pie shell. Chill thoroughly. Garnish with whipped cream and roasted peanuts.
