Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
  • 3-4 tbsp ice water
  • 1 can corn, drained
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • 9-inch pie dish
  • Rolling pin
  • Parchment paper
  • Baking weights or dried beans
  • Bowl
  • Whisk or fork
  • Saucepan

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Add the ice water, a tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together in a ball.
  4. Roll out the dough on a floured surface and place it into the pie dish. Trim the edges and prick the bottom with a fork. Line the crust with parchment paper and fill it with baking weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes.
  5. Remove the weights or beans and parchment paper and bake for another 10 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Set aside to cool.
  6. In a saucepan, combine the corn, heavy cream, eggs, Parmesan cheese, and black pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.
  7. Pour the corn mixture into the pie crust and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
  8. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
  9. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Recipes FAQ

Can I make the crust ahead of time?

Yes, you can make the crust up to 2 days ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator.

Yes, you can freeze the pie for up to 3 months. To reheat, bake in the oven at 350°F for 30-40 minutes or until heated through.

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure the butter is cold when making the crust, as this will result in a flakier crust.
  • If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil to prevent burning.
  • For a spicier version, add some chopped jalapeƱos to the filling.
  • For a more decadent version, sprinkle some crumbled bacon on top of the filling before baking.
