Stilton and Walnut Pie
A delicious blend of cream cheese plus English blue cheese (stilton) all combined with walnuts, onions, and herbs for extra flavor, texture, and crunch this is one of the most delicious savory pies you'll ever make!
Ingredients
- 1 pie dough or short-cut pastry, homemade or storebought
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 5-8 oz Stilton cheese, crumbled
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 small to medium onions, chopped
- 6 tbsp half and half or full cream
- 3 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- ground black pepper, to taste
- 5 oz walnuts, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F. Line a pie or round cake pan with the short-crust pastry or pie dough. Set aside.
- In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk or beat the eggs together just until combined. If using a mixer, stop the motor and add the rest of the ingredients except the walnuts. Blend until everything is mixed together. Stir in the chopped walnuts.
- Transfer or pour the mixture onto a pastry-lined pie and bake for about 40-45 minutes or until set and a tester comes out clean or with only a few crumbs clinging. It will fully set as it cools down and when it reaches room temperature so it may still be soft when you take it out of the oven.
- Serve warm, cold or room temp, whatever you prefer. You can refrigerate the left-overs if you want. You may reheat it but I just eat it cold straight from the fridge.
- Serve with some salad and lovely crusty bread! Enjoy!!!
