Butter migrated to the top, had to lower the the oven, it was browning too quickly, cooked it longer. I used paper towels to absorb the butter off the top. Not my favorite recipe but it was easy and fun.
Leah, here is a pic of both pies in the oven and you can see one was nowhere near filled. I think maybe I should increase the recipe size next time? Or maybe my eggs weren't big enough? Any thoughts?Delicious pies and I will be trying again this weekend!
My first try at your pie, Leah. They were delicious and I now know center knife clean is the key to knowing if it is done. I still ended up with neither pie being as thick as the pics I see here & one was just really thin. Maybe I should 1.5x recipe?
The piece of pie on the left is my THIRD piece. I had one at midnight (shame on me) it was "out of this world" good. Then I had a piece for breakfast. Best breakfast pie EVER! What you see on the right is what is left of the pie! YUMMY
After one hour the pie looks done except for a "pool" of melted butter in the center of the pie. I was wondering about that; but when I went back later to check...the melted butter had seeped back into the pie. 8/02/12
After 35 minutes I took it out of the oven to check the edges. They are browned nicely so I decided to cover them for the last part of the baking process. 8/02/12
