Ingredients
Pie Ingredients:
  • 2 cups packed dark brown sugar
  • 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 package (2-count) refrigerated pie crust
  • 1 egg and 1 tablespoon of water for egg wash
Icing Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter, cut into chunks
  • 1/3 cup evaporated milk
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. In a large bowl, whisk together the dark brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, and eggs. In a 10-inch cast iron skillet or pie plate, unroll the first pie crust. Pour the brown sugar mixture into the pie crust and smooth it evenly to fill the crust.
  2. Unroll the second pie crust over the top of the mixture, crimping together the edges of the bottom and upper crust. Beat together the egg and water for the egg wash and brush the mixture over the crust with a pastry brush. Use a sharp knife to cut a criss-cross vent into the center of the pie. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to a cooling rack.
  3. While the pie is still warm, make the icing: Bring the sugar, butter, evaporated milk, and salt to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, whisking constantly, for 10 minutes. The frosting will bubble like caramel most of the time and you'll notice it start to pull away from the sides of the pan as it nears the 10 minute mark. Remove the icing from the heat and whisk in the vanilla extract. Pour the icing over the hot pie and spread quickly, because it begins to set immediately. Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing and serving. Refrigerate leftover pie.
