Milk Pie

This is a traditional Greek recipe that I remember my mother making this time of year ! It is super easy and you probably have every ingredient on hand !

Ingredients

1.5 L Milk (you can use skimmed or full fat )
1 cup sugar
1.5 cup semolina
200gr butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 eggs
orange zest (optional)
powder sugar (for serving)
Method

Preheat your oven to 170 °C
In a large pan add the milk , sugar and semolina on low heat stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and bubbles appear .
When the mixture boils , remove from heat and add the butter and vanilla extract .
In a separate bowl add the eggs and add spoonfuls of the hot mixture to get the eggs to the right temperature , then add the eggs to the pan and stir .
Add the mixture in a buttered baking pan and cook for 1 hour .
