Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Combine all ingredients EXCEPT pie filling with a mixer for two minutes. Ensure a smooth and well-mixed batter. |
| 2 | Pour the batter into a 9-inch pie pan, spreading it evenly along the bottom and up the sides. Press firmly to create the crust. |
| 3 | Make a hole in the center of the crust to accommodate the pie filling. |
| 4 | Pour the pie filling into the center hole of the crust, allowing it to spread out evenly. Choose your favorite flavor for the filling, whether it’s apple, cherry, blueberry, or any other fruit you love. |
| 5 | Sprinkle cinnamon over the top of the pie filling, adding a touch of warmth and flavor. |
| 6 | Bake in a preheated oven at 350ºF (175ºC) for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling deliciously. Keep an eye on it to prevent over-browning. |
| 7 | Remove from the oven and let the pie cool slightly before serving. This pie is best enjoyed warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top. |
