I brought this over to my in-laws. When we cut into it, it was extremely watery. I'm the only one who actually ate it and thought it was okay taste wise. But because of what it looked like no one else wanted to eat it. I will not make this again.

This was good ... not the greatest pie in the world, but it gets kudos for simplicity and for the gact that this is a good pie to throw together at the last minute to make something special. I love cinnamon, and this is a great way to feature it.

Oh my God! My hubby and I ate the whole pie before morning. I wasn't sure I'd like it because I'm not a huge cinnamon fan but I knew he was. Well, I think I liked it even more. I'm drooling just thinking about it. I highly suggest doubling everything to make two pies.

The flavor of this unusual pie was excellent - delicate and delicious, but the texture was a bit gummy. As other reviewers mentioned, the Buttery Crunch Crust on this site goes wonderfully with this pie.

Very good. Lite dessert that tastes delicious with pumpkin ice cream.

It looks like I'm the only one who had this boil over in the oven.After the first 10 minutes I heard something sizzling and then smelled the burning sugar,I opened the oven door to be greeted by a cloud of smoke.I turned the heat down to 300 for the rest of the 45 minutes and that seemed to stop it from boiling over anymore.If I try this again (and that's a BIG if)I'll start it off in a 375 degree oven and go down to 300 and watch it like a hawk.And I'd put the pie plate on top of a cookie sheet just in case.The taste was only so so when I tried it but after it sat awhile the taste improved some.

Very good flavor. (If you like rice pudding). It tastes very milky, and very cinnamony. Very rice pudding-y. The consistency leave a lot to be desired though. For some reason my pie seemed to split into three seperate layers. Bottom: a rather thick paste-like (flour) layer, Middle: a layer that looked like curdled milk, Top: and a brown cinnamon layer on top. I think it could use a little bit more thickening. Maybe another egg, or possibly more flour. I'm not sure, give me a couple more tries and i'll know. All in all it was good, but not great. My pie still had not set after a day, so i poured out the liquid and ate what was left.

This was thin and milky on its way into the crust; and jiggly when it came out of the oven, but once it set it was a lovely custard. The top of the pie looks like the surface of the moon; not pretty but delicious. I used the Buttery Crunch Crust as other reviewers suggested.

A fantastic pie, but it still remained watery, even after cooling on a pie rack for over an hour. I think I'll cut the milk to a cup next time and see how it comes out.

made as written - turned out great - looked like superjae5 picture - and agree it looks thin when you put it together and it takes time to set - scrummy
