- How to make water pie.
The Great Depression from 1929 to 1939 was a devastating decade that brought more hardship than most of us can imagine.
Many didn't survive. For those that endured the starvation, unemployment, panic, violence, and extreme mental stress, finding ways to feed their families was a constant challenge.
It wouldn't take long for food staples to be completely depleted. Such as sugar, flour, and butter.
For those lucky enough to still have these food items for a time, they managed to come up with recipes to make life a little more bearable, such as WATER PIE.
NO ROLL CRUST MIXED IN THE PIE PAN
Ingredients
All purpose Flour - 2 cups
Granulated Sugar - 2 tablespoons
Salt - 1 teaspoon
Water - 3 tablespoons
Cooking Oil OR Butter - (1/2 cup oil) OR (8 tablespoons butter)
Deep dish pie pan 9 to 9 1/2 inches
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
PIE FILLING
Ingredients
Water - 1 1/2 cups
Vanilla - 2 teaspoons (mix with the water)
Granulated Sugar - 1 cup
All Purpose Flour - 4 tablespoons
MIX SUGAR AND FLOUR TOGETHER
Butter - 5 tablespoons cut into smaller pieces
Cinnamon or Pumpkin Pie Spice (optional)
**IMPORTANT** DO NOT STIR INGREDIENTS INTO PIE CRUST. SPRINKLE IN ONLY***
*On middle rack place pie on cookie sheet in case of spillage and to prevent bottom of crust from getting too done. Total bake time 1 hour.
BAKE AT 400 DEGREES F FOR 30 MINUTES THEN REDUCE OVEN TEMPERATURE TO 375 DEGREES F FOR ANOTHER 30 MINUTES. COVER THE EDGES OF PIE CRUST WITH FOIL OR
PIE CRUST SHIELD FOR THE LAST 30 MINUTES TO PREVENT CRUST FROM BURNING.
Remove from oven. It will still be a little liquidy. Let cool before transfering to refrigerator to set for about 3 hours.
Enjoy!
