Equipment

Ingredients

¾ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup light brown sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
4 large eggs room temperature
6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted, but not hot
1 9 inch deep dish pie crust

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F. Set rack to middle position.
In a large bowl, whisk together both sugars, flour, salt, vanilla, and vinegar until evenly mixed.
Whisk in eggs until mixture is smooth and homogenous.
Vigorously whisk in melted butter. Mixture should look smooth and blonde.
Pour mixture into unbaked pie crust. Bake until a thin brown crust develops on top and center jiggles only slightly when shaken, about 35-40 minutes.
Remove pie from oven and let cool completely, about 30 minutes. Serve room temperature or chilled.

Notes

How To Store Vinegar Pie

After having that first heavenly slice, you'll want to keep your vinegar pie fresh. Simply cover it loosely with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and pop it in the fridge. However, it's best to keep it in a pie container if you have one, to keep it from absorbing any fridge odors.

If you have a soft spot for warm pies (who doesn't?), simply reheat it gently. Place it in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes, and cover it with foil to prevent the crust from browning too much. For individual slices, a quick zap in the microwave works great too – just a few seconds should do it.

How Long Will Vinegar Pie Last In The Fridge?

In the fridge, this pie will stay good for up to 4 days. Perfect for sneaking a slice here and there!

Can I Freeze Apple Cider Vinegar Pie?

You sure can! Wrap your vinegar pie tightly with plastic wrap and then a layer of aluminum foil, and it can be frozen for up to 3 months. To enjoy it again, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight and reheat it using one of the methods above.
