Challenge accepted! This one is going on the bucket list. I don’t know about you, but eating 29 slices of pie in one day sounds mighty difficult. The Sugar Cream Pie is so popular that there’s actually a trail – complete with 29 stops – that winds through the state of Indiana. Sugar, cream, butter, cornstarch, vanilla extract, cinnamon and nutmeg. In fact, another name for this pie is Desperation Pie because it doesn’t require any fresh fruit and most of the ingredients are pantry staples. The folks at the Indiana Historical Society have found written references to Sugar Cream Pie all the way back to 1816, but they say that this dessert likely existed in the state’s Amish communities long before that. Sugar Cream Pie (also called Hoosier Pie) is the state pie of Indiana. Technically this one isn’t “official” as the bill hasn’t made it’s way to the governor’s desk yet, but that’s just a technicality. Sugar Cream Pie is the state pie of Indiana. Today’s post features another classic state food, but fortunately this one isn’t too odd.
I mean I love cinnamon rolls, and I love chili…but together? I think I’ll take a hard pass there. I mean I love pizza, but clams!? And if you live in Kansas, then you probably know about the whole dipping cinnamon rolls in chili thing. Connecticut counters the chocolate gravy with their own odd food – clam pizza. Gravy with the addition of cocoa powder, and it’s typically served over biscuits for breakfast. While it’s not an “official” state food, Arkansas is known for chocolate gravy – and it’s just like it sounds. There are some really strange state foods out there. This tasty dessert is packed with the flavors of vanilla and cinnamon…yum! Sugar Cream Pie is the unofficial state pie of Indiana.
