Amish Vanilla Pie Tips

How can you tell when Amish vanilla pie is done?

You can tell when Amish vanilla pie is done when the bottom crust appears lightly browned, and its signature crumb topping is golden brown. That's one advantage of using a clear glass pie plate—you can check the color, and can also avoid an undercooked, soggy crust. Use Amish butter to make the pie taste even more authentic.

What can you serve with Amish vanilla pie?

If you love baking up Amish recipes, this vanilla pie is sure to become a new favorite. Make it extra special by serving with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

How should you store Amish vanilla pie?

Store leftover Amish vanilla pie covered in the refrigerator. When you've polished off the pie, try more Amish desserts like classic Amish cookies.
