[@amberford300]

Can I ask how you got the measurements, I heard him say the measurements for a few of the ingredients but not all of them

[@MockingBirdJoy]

Made this last week and really liked it. I had to make some substitutions, but it came out DELICIOUS! I really like this oatmeal crust A LOT! Thanks, Steve.

[@Marigoldenn]

Finally, a delicious recipe with ingredients so basic that I can get them even here at the ass end of the world. Thank you so much!! 💕

[@Steve-Owens]

Well not, that begs the Question, where in the world are you :)

[@Marigoldenn]

Currently in a province in the Philippines that's hours away from a supermarket is where, haha! Actually tried this after seeing the video mate. Was a big hit with the family - it was gone within 10 minutes. Thank you for sharing your recipe! :)

[@Steve-Owens]

Good work, thanks for sharing.. Steve

Looks incredible Steve! I'll definitely be trying this one soon. I also want to say how much I have enjoyed the brown sauce I made following your recipe. Absolutely delicious!!! Thank you so much!

[@Steve-Owens]

Thanks for saying William.. 👍🏼

[@topsauce1299]

Second time baking milkbar pie with your recipe Steve, this time I think I did a better job of it despite cooking it in an aga whilst on holiday. Thanks again for an easy to follow helpful recipe Steve!

[@Steve-Owens]

Hey y'all sorry I can't get to the comments. I cookin' with those egg whites. Something cool.. I'll check in later xxxx

[@jaysencain1562]

Great video Steve. I'm just wondering - Christina's original version contains freeze dried corn powder. If you were to include it, how much would you have added?

[@toniomalley5661]

Update on pies, jumping in deep end I made three ,see how I trust you Steve ,yes big Irish family ,having made the base of course I had to taste delish so made three bases and a lot extra to which I added pecans and made a big batch of cookies or bikkies the pies were sooo good and were the first to disappear with loads of compliments all sent to your channel many thanks ,very quickly became a family favourite so lovein the amazing work you both do love from the green bit

[@Steve-Owens]

It's always lovely to get great feedback from you Toni.. I am super pleased this one went down well Love to you all in the Emerald Isle.. :o)

[@toniomalley5661]

[@Steve-Owens]

You're going to love this one Toni, eat sparingly LOL.

[@champagnerose999]

Thankyou for the recipe

[@Mazeguy7]

I had it at Momofuku and I still stick to my opinion: the name is perfect (as the pie). Delicious, addictive and a nuclear blast on your health. Nice recipe and nice video

[@trabajaba]

Your speaking and presentation is on point

[@lawrencebyrne4618]

could you make a Opposite Oreos? (white chocolate vanilla cookie with dark chocolate filling). would appreciate it so much

[@graciekitty6213]

ooooooh looks yummy, found a recipe for cranberry fudge pie

[@h.e.pennypacker2037]

As always perfect. I’ll try this Steve. It looks delicious.

[@Steve-Owens]

Thanks H.E.

[@nikkigoddess450]

Steve...OMG ... this pie looks so yummy .. I will definitely make this now .... it’s Sunday afternoon here in Washington DC ... you are just wonderful and I am your biggest fan . Nicki.

[@Steve-Owens]

Thanks Nicki, Hope you love it, I have another Video Recipe going up in about 6 hours time, I can't believe it's Sunday there and Monday here LOL.. Happy weekend.

[@nikkigoddess450]

Steve's Kitchen Thank you Steve, you are the best !

[@wtglb]

“...you bet I’m not!” Lol! Looks soooo good, I have to try this!

[@labaguette2728]

I made it and it was great! So naturally I made it again, but this time... it was great! Going for round 3 this weekend.

[@wendyjohnson9554]

Ohhh! I'm going to have to make this.

[@jodane6186]

Nice job. You make it so simple. Have you filmed a treacle tart?

[@Steve-Owens]

I haven't Joanna and I really should have, may one day :)

[@itaystav6111]

Hi steve :) What ingredient can I use instead of dry milk powder? I really want to try the recipe but I don't have access to dry milk powder.

[@Steve-Owens]

Are you sure? It's usually available almost everywhere. Look for unsweetened coffee creamer powder..

[@itaystav6111]

Ok thank you

[@ahmedyoussef5859]

you are my best chef

[@demoldh]

Love this 🥧

[@Oldgit51]

I wonder if you could use HobNobs or maybe a flapjack recipe for the base.

[@Steve-Owens]

Flap jack sounds really good :o) Go for it.

[@seanhaviland3448]

I read in a few recipes to chill it for several hours? Is that necessary or can I chill it for like 10 minutes or something without it falling apart?

[@DavidANeely]

I'm gonna make one

[@jmarylastone]

oh my gosh - I think I will make this in a square pan and cut it into BREAKFAST BARS!!!!!!!!!!!

[@R.C.D.87]

I love I love I love it omg!

[@Steve-Owens]

Me too Kelly..

[@keithjones5268]

Looking good steve looking good

[@Steve-Owens]

Thanks Buddy

[@Metzger23]

Guess they were itching for this pie.

[@kennyrogers803]

Mmmmmm.... That taste soooooo gooood!! That taste soo delicious and crispy pie!! Great dish!! See u anytime!! :)

[@Steve-Owens]

Thanks you buddy.

[@kennyrogers803]

You welcome!! Have a great day too!!

[@jennyh5641]

Just a tip to anyone who is considering making this pie - the extra step of crumbling the oatmeal cookie and reshaping it into the pie crust is excessive and not necessary. You're just adding more butter and sugar to the already fattening recipe and making more of a mess than needed. Just shape the oatmeal cookie dough into the pie tin and bake it as you would bake the cookie. When you remove it from the oven, the crust is ready to go.

[@shirisheep1938]

Jenny H hey Jennie ! All the videos i watched such far are saying it’s an important step the crumbling of the oatmeal, where u get that extra taste or whatever .. though personally I would prefer not not to ( excessive calories ) I’m afraid to ruin a wining flavor

[@kmpr123]

Hi Steve, the original recipe calls for 'nonfat dry milk' can I use the regular dry milk? Thank you!!

[@Steve-Owens]

Non Fat trendy rubbish. Use normal, this ain't a salad, it's meant to taste good.

[@kmpr123]

Steve's Kitchen thank you Steve!! A little more fat aint gonna hurt :p also, Cristina sometimes use a little of corn flour to make the filling, does it make a difference?? or I just can skip it...🤔🤔

[@Steve-Owens]

I've said before, there a many versions out there, even from Christina. Trust me this is the best, I do the work so you don't have to.

[@Lotilumirie]

Where is the corn powder?

[@Steve-Owens]

For what?

[@lulimiri9295]

Steve's Kitchen Christina uses corn powder in her original netflix recipe!

[@Steve-Owens]

Yes but you are not reading my question.. For what? What would I add corn powder for? Christina doesn't use it in several demonstrations of her own recipe and does in some occasions.. So again I ask you, why do you feel it is needed? What does it bring to the table, explain?

[@Lotilumirie]

Calm down, I already told you nicely she uses it in her original netflix recipe. Dont wanna use it? Cool! You can kindly respond "hey! Christina does not always use corn powder, so I chose not to." period.

[@aakkiirree32]

The original crack pie recipe includes freeze dried corn powder. She often leaves it out because not everyone can get it or wants to go through the trouble of making it.

[@malakhaider6167]

Crack pie is literally the bestttt

[@miskogwanredfeather5135]

Yummy👍

[@Steve-Owens]

😋

[@rayray123456100]

can i skip the corn flour？

[@orilevi5]

I can't get my hands on milk powder in my country... what can I do?

[@amberford300]

So the cream, milk powder and 4 egg yolks, you tell us how much but with the sugars the amount doesn't matter? And does that go for the crust too? Instead of putting someone down you could have explained that.

[@Steve-Owens]

You're boring Amber..

[@VBEd666]

Looks great Steve. As I watch this video, KZbin reports that it only has 2 views and 30 thumbs up. I think the KZbin view counter isn't working.

[@Steve-Owens]

KZbin Ed, pretty much everything doesn't work.. LOL Latters buddy

[@charlottelovell8184]

My hubs is a deputy and I am so sending one of those to the office Christmas pot luck.

[@TheNeighborNicky]

Is it supposed to be salted or unsalted butter?

[@Steve-Owens]

Whatever you prefer, there is no right or wrong, I never buy or use unsalted butter but if you're into cutting down on Salt do as you wish. Salt is not an ingredient, it's a preference to suit your tastes. Everyone is different and so it should be.

[@maxibake9323]

Does it taste like butterscotch Steve, ? if it does then I will make this, if it doesn't I will still make it anyway. 🤗😃 Looks Scrum. Take care, & Happy Weekend to you. ❤☺🐶

[@Steve-Owens]

Then it does and.. Id doesn't LOL, so you win either way :)

[@maxibake9323]

Steve's Kitchen Yay. LOL. ❤☺🐶

[@brendastrandrigdon6201]

Oooooooh nooooooo must do this one or just dive face down into the crumbs 😍

[@Steve-Owens]

:o)

[@RosalieCartwright]

where can I find the recipe?

[@RosalieCartwright]

found it

[@sonicbelve]

Crack pie has corn powder and you freeze overnight to condense the flavor.

[@san7843]

Can I use store bought cornmeal?? How much quantity do you know?

[@topsauce1299]

I love you Steve

[@Steve-Owens]

Thanks.

[@truthtube1673]

I just ate this and now I'm a crack addict

[@adamburdt8794]

Dang it... So few ingredients and STILL I somehow and missing one (rolled oats)... I do have those oatmeal packets that people often eat for breakfast. I wonder if those would work

[@Steve-Owens]

They are quick out, the worst soggiest and most expensive way to buy crap oatmeal, I wouldn't ;o)

[@beckysilky2868]

Yummiliciousness 😍❤

[@bladder1010]

HOw much crack do I put in it, though?

[@ndiekwere6027]

it's called crack pie because it's addictive

[@graciekitty6213]

ever make hoosier pie?

[@Mack-io3uv]

I followed the Recipe to the T and for some reason my pie has a cookie like texture

[@Steve-Owens]

People always say to a T, so if you did it "perfectly" and it didn't come out like mine.. Yet I never share anything inaccurate (ever) then what can I say to you.. ? think about it.

[@purplereign5889]

Oh wow, I know I would definitely need rehab after this crack pie, but I'd say no, no, no! Lolol 😂

[@Steve-Owens]

😋

[@mir0mik]

Why did you lowered the cream ingredients by half? Did you have any issues with the original amounts?

[@Steve-Owens]

You'll find many versions of this online, "trust me" and even several different versions put up by the Milk Bar, you have to try them all and you'll see some are inaccurate. That's what I do for you all and then using logic and total failures you'll kind of work out that some are just plain wrong. This happens time and time again with Online Recipe. I am working on a Recipe now that almost every online version is just not thought through. I try to sort out that chaff, I never put up a Recipe that isn't calculated correctly. That way if someone says it doesn't work, I don't even have to review the Video, I know it does. So in Answer, which ever Recipe you're referring to, it's almost certainly wrong.

[@mir0mik]

Steve's Kitchen Hi Steve, I'm referring to this one - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jmS8k4evrZaKodE (recipe starts around 2:40) In your version almost all ingredients match except the amounts in the "cream", where the sugars and yolks are cutted in half...

[@Steve-Owens]

It's really funny that you mention that Clip, because I did type in my Earlier Reply but decided not to get too specific.. That the Example on the Internet of Christina making this with Martha Stewart was a good example of how Online shows often don't share their mistakes. What happens is they film the making of... ! suddenly realise they screwed up. and just adjust the Amounts behind the scenes and plunder on, leaving the Viewer entertained but the home cook frustrated. On youtube you can't get away with that Nonsense.. At least you shouldn't but many do. You'll notice in that Video right at this point > kzbin.info/www/bejne/jmS8k4evrZaKodE the Pie Base mix is barely enough to make a single base, where as a few minutes later they are spreading out a Huge amount of cookie dough on the tray ???? Also the amount that comes out of the Oven is not the amount that she states earlier. The first ingredients listed, could not cover 2 pie cases.. and so it continues.. These clips are not Recipes you can use, they are smoke and Mirrors that Martha and her team use to get a show, completely useless for cooking and I have seen it time and time again of hers and other shows.. Do I need to go on ?? Trust me if you follow that Recipe it will fail, big time. This is Steve's Kitchen.. I like to entertain but I also feel it's wrong to cheat your viewers. If you share a Recipe it really should work as well as entertain.. I hope All the best Steve

[@mir0mik]

Steve's Kitchen Hi Steve, thanks for the reply. I know how it works on internet that was the reason why I was asking (not to undermine you) I was just curious if you tested the "original" version an it failed and you adjusted... The information what I was expecting was like - it was too watery, or it was too egg flavour, or it won't cook... I've followed the original and it wasn't too bad but newer sit properly, now when I found your version I will try it... BTW - one more thing - did you ever try to add lemon/lemon zest to the "cream" I can imagine as good fit...

[@Steve-Owens]

Sorry but that Recipe she shows in that video, is 100% incorrect and won't work, Christina gives the same Recipe on two other TV Shows and they greatly different but the one the Martha show has been poorly edited and is not even Christinas Recipe. I always try many versions of a Recipe before I make my final one for my show, what you see is the results of many failed attempts and calculated common food sense. Don't worry, you're not undermining me, you ask good questions and I never bait on questions unless I feel they add something to the channel. Lemon by the way would be nice, cinnamon, nutmeg too but in this case it wouldn't give the right experience.. I'll leave this now, I think we have covered all the bases and I have heaps to do and many hundreds of comments to reply to.

[@natlongrox]

I tried the recipe but the filling was so flowy.. and it was extremely sweet.. didn’t look like the finished product in your video.

[@d.lawrence5670]

Oatmeal cookie with a ton of eggs, butter, and sugar; or a chess pie with an oatmeal crust. $44 for that? You people are crazy. Get some old southern cook to make you a chess pie for $3 and get just as easily addicted.

[@d.lawrence5670]

Bet his pie is way better than Tosi's pie.

[@22kiki22]

So I have a stupid question. What the hell is milk power? I want to make this. 😬

[@ndiekwere6027]

I will not be leaving that in flat.

[@jimmyreuben6919]

You eat all that mate your gonna need a bigger waistcoat. 😋

[@Steve-Owens]

Thanks for the warning Jimmy, I'll get another waistcoat ordered.. Close call.

[@verybiGirl]

It was a fail:( too sugary and fatty, with straight taste of butterscotch, not a high class dessert. So I just put pie in a blender, add egg and some self-raising flour, some chocolate chips and 🪄 the delicious pound cake is ready😁

[@d.lawrence5670]

Christina Tossi's a hack. That's why all "comments are disabled" on her videos. She can't make a custard pie or cake NEARLY as good as any of my Southern aunts desserts, but she has the nerve to sell you a $44 pie or a sliver of pie for $6 bucks or a $44 "naked" cake just so you have the privilege of seeing the layers! If this pie didn't have a stupid gimmicky name and wasn't associated with the great David Change, if this pie was just sold in some unknown black bakers' shop, it would have the zero hype it deserves.

[@Steve-Owens]

You're probably right Debra but it's a tasty pie anyway, life goes that way some times..

[@d.lawrence5670]

Steve's Kitchen, you're right. That's just the way it goes sometimes.

[@jennyh5641]

I guess you can say that's the way the Compost Cookie crumbles.

[@gregorsamsa1364]

So she "invented" a sugar pie(which has been around forever in different parts of the world) with a basic oatmeal cookie crust(also not an original creation). She almost certainly wasn't the first person to make a sugar pie with an oatmeal cookie crust. Probably not even close. There have been all sorts of sugar pie crust variations, even some with no real crust at all, where the bottom and side of the filling caramelize to forn it's own "crust". Looks like maybe this chick is just a narcissist who didn't even consider that perhaps it wasn't so original

[@irishshamrock3025]

Christina Tosi is one of the most well known bakers that exists lmao.... if you think this is just your ordinary sugar pie, so be it.... but she gave it a measured recipe and a name that has taken off like a rocket. Deal with it jealous weirdo.

[@gregorsamsa1364]

@@irishshamrock3025 Sorry, but i didn't invent chocolate chip cookies because my personal recipe has measurements and I give it a name. This chick didn't invent sugar pie, which is a classic depression pie

[@panwu6602]

Waste of time. Why turn it into a pie when you can just smoke it?
