- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups boiling water

- 1 baked 9-inch baked pie crust
- In a bowl, mix the sugar, flour, cornstarch, and salt together.
- In a saucepan over high heat, boil 2 cups water; add the sugar mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture just begins to thicken.
- Reduce heat to low and cook until thickened; whisk in the beaten egg yolks and cook 2 minutes longer on low heat.
