Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix the white sugar and brown sugar, then blend in the flour, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whip the eggs, milk, and vanilla together.
- Add the whipped mixture to the dry ingredients and mix well.
- Pour the combined mixture into a 9-inch unbaked pie crust.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 45 minutes.
- The pie will look puffy like a souffle when done.
- Allow the pie to cool and it will fall as it cools.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider substituting half of the white sugar with maple syrup. If you prefer a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free flour blend instead of regular flour. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can lead to a denser pie. Ensure your eggs are at room temperature for better incorporation. This Bobandy Pie can also be enhanced with a dash of nutmeg for added warmth.
Serving Suggestions
Serve Bobandy Pie warm or at room temperature. A dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream pairs beautifully with this pie, enhancing its rich flavors. For an extra touch, drizzle with Chocolate Frosting Or Fudge Sauce. This dessert is perfect alongside a cup of coffee or tea, making it a delightful end to any meal.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover pie in the refrigerator, covered loosely with plastic wrap or in an airtight container. It's best enjoyed within 3-4 days. To reheat, place slices in a microwave for about 15-20 seconds or warm in an oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes until heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a store-bought pie crust for this recipe?
Yes, using a store-bought pie crust is a convenient option if you're short on time. Just ensure it's a 9-inch crust to fit the filling perfectly. Follow the package instructions for pre-baking if required, but this pie can also be made with an unbaked crust as stated in the recipe.
What can I substitute for milk in this recipe?
If you're looking for a dairy-free option, almond milk or soy milk works well in this recipe. For a richer flavor, consider using coconut milk. Just remember that the texture may vary slightly, so choose a milk that suits your dietary needs and preferences.
How do I know when the pie is done baking?
The pie is done when it is puffed up and the edges are slightly golden. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out mostly clean, with just a few moist crumbs. Keep in mind that the pie will fall as it cools, creating a delightful texture.
