Notes
- TIPS:

- Don’t panic, remember this pie seems impossible but it all works out.
- The mixture will somehow separate as it’s cooking to form a pastry bottom, a custard filling and a crunchy top.
- FAQs:
- Why is it called Impossible Pie?
- Person 1: This lovely layered pie took 5 minutes to make.
- Person 2: But it’s a three-layered pie with pastry, a custard filling and a crunchy top. That’s impossible!
- Person 1: It’s true but it is impossible, Impossible Pie!
- Can you freeze Impossible Pie?
- You can freeze this pie for up to three months. But it’s so lovely made fresh, so make it up to eat straight away if possible.
