Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of milk in this recipe?
Yes, you can substitute Pet milk with whole milk, evaporated milk, or even almond milk for a dairy-free option. Just keep in mind that the flavor and texture may vary slightly, but it will still yield a delicious pie.
How do I know when the pie is done baking?
The pie is done when the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle but is not liquid. It should firm up as it cools. Baking times may vary slightly depending on your oven, so keep an eye on it during the last few minutes.
Can I make this pie ahead of time?
Absolutely! This pie can be made a day in advance. Once baked, let it cool completely before storing it in the refrigerator. This allows the flavors to meld and makes it even more delicious when served the next day.
