Cinnamon Butterscotch Pie Recipe Needs to Be On Your Thanksgiving Table

My family loves pie. My mom loves butterscotch and cinnamon, so this butterscotch cinnamon pie recipe was a no-brainer for her birthday. This creamy butterscotch pie was a cinch to make and was absolutely delicious, not too sweet like a lot of butterscotch recipes I've made for her. 

To make this easy pie with all the fall feels, you will need a pie crust, dark brown sugar, flour, cornstarch, salt, ground cinnamon, whole milk, egg yolks, butter and vanilla extract. The pie whips up in no time, but do allow time for it to chill. 

Serve this easy butterscotch pie with whipped cream and a sprinkling of cinnamon for the holidays. This incredible pie will be on my Thanksgiving menu this year, for sure.

Recipe Notes

  • Don't skip the step of tempering the eggs, or you could end up with scrambled eggs. That's not good!
  • Store the pie covered in the refrigerator.

Here's how to make it:

  1. Put the pie crust into a pie plate. Flute the edges and prick the bottom all over with a fork. Bake in a preheated 450-degree F oven until golden brown, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  2. Put the egg yolks into a small bowl and whisk.
  3. In a saucepan, combine the brown sugar, flour, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon and milk. Whisk together and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring, about 5 minutes or until thickened.
  4. Take about 1/3 cup of the hot filling and put it into the eggs yolks to temper. Stir. Whisk into the filling.
  5. Add the butter and vanilla. Cook another 2 minutes.
  6. Pour the filling into the pie shell. Let the pie cool about 30 minutes before refrigerating to completely chill, at least 2 hours.

Do you know if this recipe is pregnancy-safe since then eggs are only cooked for a couple minutes?

Because we are not medical professionals, I would advise you to discuss this with your doctor. Good question!

This cake out very tasty but didn’t quite fill up a deep dish pie crust. How do you suggest increasing volume?
