This cheese pie is made after being inspired by my former neighbor Inger’s great pies. I just had to do my own version as we don’t see each other often enough any more. The pie is great to do when you have some old blue cheese left over that is too ripe to eat by it self.

filling
blue cheese
chopped walnuts
3 eggs
300 ml milk
salt and pepper

dough
75 g (2.6 ounces) butter
flour 300 ml (1 ¼ cup) white flour
salt
some water

Mix the dough together and let it rest for a while in the fridge. Spread it on a round dish and poke at it with a fork. Pre bake the shell with pie-weights for about 10 min at 200°C (392 F). Remove the pie weights and keep baking the pie shell for about 5 minutes. Let cool.

Mix the eggs and milk together in a blender. Add the blue cheese to your own taste. It often tastes more intense before it’s baked so don’t be afraid to add a little too much. Blend it to make a smooth filling and poor the filling into the pre baked shell. Add the chopped walnuts and bake the pie until the filling is firm.

I serve my cheese pie with a salad and some red whine.
