Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 egg (take 1 egg, beat it up a bit and then use half of this)
- 2 oz butter
- 1/4 cup sugar salt
Directions
Beat together butter and sugar. Add egg, and then add in dry ingredients. You should get a crumbly mix. Press this into a pie dish and bake at 350F for 20 minutes.
Filling
1-1/2 eggs (use the other half of the egg that contributed to the pastry)
1-1/4 tablespoons flour
1-1/4 tablespoons cornflour
2-1/4 cups milk (this is 1 pint)
1 tsp vanilla flavouring
1 tsp butter
Boil the milk. In another bowl/pot (depending on whether you are using a microwave or cooker), beat the egg and sugar. Add the flour and cornflour to the egg/sugar mixture and beat this together. Add the milk and cook till it thickens. (This works well in a microwave oven). Remove from heat and add vanilla and butter. Beat well, and pour into the baked shell. Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg, and cool. (This is best refrigerated.)
