Vanilla Crumb Pie is Yum!
This pie may not win any beauty contests but, wow, oh wow…..Pie Week on Amish365.com continues with this amazing Heaven in a crust: Vanilla Crumb Pie. I tasted some Amish-made vanilla crumb pie recently and it was just indescribable…but I’ll try anyway. It has a crumbly crumb topping (I love crumb toppings) encasing a layer of gooey, brown sugary bliss. I am posting a vanilla crumb pie recipe below that I got from an Amish woman in Virginia.
The formulations for vanilla crumb pie are all pretty much the same, so with the recipe below you can create your own pie bliss.
The Amish are known for their simple scratch-made pies like brown sugar pie, milk pie, bob any pie, etc,
but this one may take the cake…er the pie…for best simple confections.
