filipino egg pie

Filipino Egg pie with creamy egg custard filling using eggs, sugar, vanilla and evaporated milk.  A famous dessert in the Philippines that can be seen in many local bakeries. 
​

​To make this Egg Pie of course we need a pie crust. Ready made pie crusts are available in the refrigerated section at any supermarkets. Here in California, I can purchase two pie shells in one pack for only about $2.00-$3.00. Then a deep dish pie crusts for 2 shells inside  is about $4..00 That's just about $1.50 or $2.00 each. 

​The ready made one which tastes good anyway can save you a lot of time and effort. You can also make one from scratch, please see my Buko Pie recipe for full information how to make it.

The process is very simple, prepare the filling ingredients first by combining evaporated milk, eggs, sugar and vanilla,. I only added 1/2 cup of sugar here. Some uses condensed milk but I don't like it too sweet so please feel free to adjust accordingly. Just whisk all the ingredients together until fully blended. Strain the bubbles on top to achieve a smooth custard filling.

In a small bowl, beat the egg white until soft peak. Soft peak means until egg white mildly foams up. To test, when you turn your whisk upside down, the peaks are just starting to hold. 
Picture
Combine it to the filling mixture by folding the egg white into the batter. They will float and that's normal because that will be the topping for your egg pie.

Then transfer the mixture into a prepared pie crust. Bake at 350F for 20 minutes then lower oven temp to 325F and bake again for another 30-35 minutes. Do not over bake the pie or make the top too brown or else the egg white will taste slightly bitter.  Full detailed recipe below.

Hello Denise,

I am glad na nagustuhan mo. Depende sa cost ng pie crust mo and how much ang bili mo sa mga recipes. Add up mo lang sya then multiply x 3 para makuha mo ang tamang price. kasi 1/3 should be the ingredients, 1/3 for your labor and 1/3 for utilities and other misc cost. I hope this helps. Happy Thanksgiving in advance din.
