- This decadent Boston cream pie is a classic American Cake, not pie, made with tender vanilla sponge cake filled with silky vanilla pastry cream all topped by a glossy chocolate ganache.
RECIPE: preppykitchen....
This classic cake combines three simple components to make one fabulous dessert; moist delicate vanilla cake filled with silky vanilla pastry cream and topped by a decadent chocolate ganache. If you’re confused as to why this “pie” looks like a cake, you’re not alone, but I explain it in the video!

Chilling the cream filling in the exact shape of the cake/pie was genius! 💗👍🏾
Thank you! I was sooo excited with that. :))
I agree!! Worked perfectly
Yes!
Pure genius!
actually its just common sense- so much is simply that
Chillin the custard in the cake pan is next level.
I would love a video of all your favorite pans, pots, and baking dishes! Plus serving platters that you like? I loved the gadgets video!! Thanks!
That's a good idea, I haven't done one in a while!
I second this!
Yes!!! Would love this.
That would be great!
Yes please! I loved all your copper! I’m so envious!
John! Chilling the pastry cream in the cake pan to form a solid disc is GENIUS! The result looks better than most professional bakeries. My friends were amazed. Thank you!
Just made this for my husband for Father’s Day, just want you to know i appreciate all your videos & hard work!
I showed my girlfriend a video of you making a cake. She absolutely loved the positive and wholesome vibe from you!
Also she wanted me to make that cake lol
Thank you and happy baking!

How is this man still thin?
His whole diet consists of only the bites he takes on camera. Other than that he doesn't eat. It has to be. There is no other explanation. 😉

I've made this cake by using the recipe you posted a while ago on the website it turned out amazing !! Everyone loved it
Yes like it
Hello Mr Kanell I’m very impressed with your baking my mom and I search up your recipes and we bake once a week and you are talented and a very kind person
Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes its been therapeutic especially during these hard times in this pandemic. It’s been rough since I don’t get to got to school ,so baking helps me get through this I hope you will write back to me
It came out absolutely fantastic. I just made my 70th birthday cake. Using not only your idea for the pastry cream, but also the recipe. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you so much for being there and helping us out.
Honestly, this guy has the most charming personality I've ever witnessed. I don't know anyone who has used the phrase "two shakes of a lambs tail". I'm also obsessed with his blog and receipe videos!
Then you haven’t known enough people from the South. I grew up with that expression from my mom, even though I live in the lovely Pacific Northwest. I still use it whenever the need calls for it.
I know a lot of people who’ve used that phrase
Me: Yay John uploaded
3 minutes later: Can you come to my house and make that for me?
Then stop by my place and make it again😁
So I don’t have multiple cake pans so I’m gonna chill my filling in the fridge and when ready to use I’m just gonna whip it up and put between the layers. I thought someone might wanted to know. Have an amazing day everyone!!❤️
This is an amazing Boston Cream Pie. However, please be aware, that if you choose to prepare the pastry cream as the video suggests, by putting it in a pan the size of the cake and flipping it onto the case slice, it WILL separate when the pie is served, as it does not stick to the cake pieces. This was my only disappointment with the recipe. The original method of spreading the pastry cream onto one of the cake slices probably allow the cake to absorb some of the moisture, thereby sticking in place when the cake is set. Otherwise, this cake was perfect! Please note the written recipe does not indicate WHEN to put in the vanilla extract into the Pastry Cream. Correct your printed copy so it says to add it to the pastry cream when cooking it on the stove. No one else has mentioned this problem, so if anyone has any idea why it didn't work for me, please advise. Thanks.
My favorite cake just in time for my 30th birthday??? John you shouldn't have!❤❤❤
Happy Birthday!!!
Happy birthday dear
Happy birthday ^^
Happy Birthday
Happy birthday miss Aliya! Happy birthday 🎉🎈
This is such a great “old school “ recipe. It was one of the first things I made as a kid…haven’t thought about this in years, but now I’m craving it.
I made this recipe twice already. My friends loved it! For the second try, I tried swapping out the ganache with orange buttercream frosting. It worked so well!
I'll be making another one again for my dad's birthday which is in 2 days. Thank you, John! I've been learning a lot since I started watching your vids. Never been fan of baking but I already fell in love with it! 💙
The fact that John is giddy over his pastry cream is the best!! 💗
The cream looks so creamy and silky, and altogether, the cake/pie (lol) looks like a masterpiece!
Loved watching your video and gained some great info/tricks. This is currently my husbands favorite Birthday Cake and when he just came into the kitchen and tasted the Pastry Cream he declared I could have been happy with just this. After he helped me pour the custard into the Saran lined cake pan I handed him the pan to get the last of pastry cream out.. After all it is his Birthday today!
My favorite cake! I split cakes using dental floss. Get it centered all the way around the cake, then cross the ends and gently but firmly pull both ends until the floss cuts all the way through--never fails to make a straight cut.
I made this pastry cream today and it was wonderful. It was also my first success at making pastry cream. Great recipe and thanks for sharing it!
How do you always stay so cheery and full of energy?! #goals
Brilliant trick regarding pastry cream cooler in same size pan to fit perfectly between cake layers.
Boston cream pie was one of my favorite deserts as a child growing up in the mid 1970s.
Such a brilliant solution to have a ready to go pastry cream disc!!! I’m smiling ear to ear too!
I just baked a strawberry cake and used your pastry cream recipe for the filling. It turned out great and everyone loved it. Thanks!
Made this today. Turned out fantastic! Thank you, John, for making cooking such a joy.
John I love watching your videos, you are so positive and encouraging.
So smart!! The pastry cream trick... And you look really happy. That's amazing
I really like the explanation of what the ingredients do or why they're in the recipe.
I made this cake yesterday and while it was great, by using the method with the custard the finished cake became 3 separate items never melding to each other.If you whipped the custard and spread it between the layers of cake it would have glued the top and bottom layers of cake keeping them together as you ate it.I will definitely make this again.
this looks GREAT, in all my years it's never came to freeze the cream in a pan to size 🤯🤯😊😊
u jus made my adult life a lot easier ❤❤
I used to eat these all the time as a kid. My mother would always buy Boston cream pies. Oh how I loved this pie!
Never had a Boston Cream Pie just a donut.. I think the baby in my belly is asking me to make this!! :)
You should, it’s such an amazing cake. One of my favs
Don't let the baby down!
Welp, you heard the baby!
That's a baby with good taste
Congratulations!!! Hope you both enjoy it.
Oh my goodness! That looks divine! I’m making this for my sister’s birthday next month! Putting the custard in a round cake pan to chill is genius! Your recipes are to die for. You make my life easier, sweetie. All the best to you and your family.
I'm making this tomorrow for my birthday because it looks very delicious and I love a good pastry cream! I just made the cream ahead of time and it came out AMAZING both in texture and flavor (I used goat milk instead of regular cow milk and it is just exploding with flavor and has a lovely aroma), I just can't wait to do the rest of the recipe tomorrow!
A behind the scenes would be so cool! 🤩
It’s crazy how fast this channel has grown! I discovered you at 60k! And now almost 2 million in the blink of an eye!
Made custard for the first time ever following this video and it could not have come out more perfect 🎉🎉 thank you!
I honestly believe that John doesn't know why we find him so adorable!🤗

You are easy to follow Professor! Thank you!
Thank You John. I made this for my family today & O...M...G!!!!! It was a hit!
i was burned out by the holiday drama & bakings, so i'm like on a baking strike.. but this video makes me wanna bake right now~ like suuuper right now.. thanks John!
Ok John I made this cake twice. 1st one came out domed and it shrunk badly. I guess I took it out too early even though the toothpick came out clean. This meant I could not cut it in half because it was not puffy enough. When I cut into it, it was dense and tough. I began all over because the custard was made and in a pan of the same size as cake pan and that was an amazing tip - thank you for that. Anyway, back to my second attempt at the cake. This one I used the cake pan wraps which revealed an even flat top cake that also had height. My only issue was not coating the inside of the pan with butter and flour which would have turned the cake out without any sticking sides to the pan - even though I ran a knife around the inside to help release it. It came out all choppy and really messy looking. Your video shows you just spraying the pan lightly which is what I did. Would you ever consider making a video showing all the steps we should be doing when making any style cake?
You're making it really hard to decide what to bake for my birthday dude.
🤣🤣
Made this yesterday. I like for the pastry cream to be smoother. This one, with a 1/4 cup of corn starch, thickens up as if there was gelatin in it.
I just made this today. It's beautiful! I'm taking it to a family event tomorrow.
OMG! A recipe from John for Boston Creme Pie. I’ve always settled for the one at Kroger or Wal-Mart that never has enough pastry creme 😒
That looks delicious! And I love the tip for the cream filling. That was brilliant! Thumbs up!
Made this delicious pie (cake) tonight...it came out amazing!! The mold for the custard was genius. I will ALWAYS use that tip! Thanks for the awesome recipe!!!
That is an Amazing trick with the cream!!!
I made this for Christmas and OMGGGG! Thank you for your amazing recipes
Great tip on making of the filling! I noticed you didn’t use cake strips, is there a reason for that?
Your cake layers are always so perfectly flat 😍
As a lover of pastry cream, I am always disappointed by the "too thin" layer in Boston Cream Pie...the extra cornstarch added, and chilling in the cake pan is a game changer!
Love your vids and your kitchen is gorgeous!!
I wanted to be first but it only loaded until 1 minute after! I love your videos John, you never run out of recipes!
Thanks Daniel!!!
@@PreppyKitchen OMG!!!!!!! You replied, thank you so much. You are amazing!
@@danielmartinezdev that is my reaction if any youtuber were to respond to me let alone John who is literally my idol in every single way.
Made this cake today for my kid's birthday. Big winner!! I did lessen the sugar.
You are a genius pastry chef and lovely human been. Thank a lot. Estella
Oo that custard flip trick works sooo well , I did everything but I did a white chocolate ganache , thaanks
Wow! Letting the cream set in the pan was so smart!! I couldn't believe how easy it was to just plop it on the cake!
I don’t think I’ve ever tried this cake before. But I do love custard and that was a brilliant trick forming it into a cake pan. Thanks John 😊
I’ve been following your recipes for a long time and they always turn out to be a success! Can you please make croissants next?
I love the laughs and smiles and the recipe and tips! Thanks!
I'm going to make this for my dad for his birthday. He loves Boston Cream Pie.
I love Boston cream pie and I’ve never seen anyone make or share this recipe so well...
Me: *GASP* He didn't use his cake strips!!!
I noticed that too
You know that feeling when a cake has been created for you 😍 cannot wait to make this one!
I just did my fist Boston Cream pie. It came out really good. Thank you!
The idea with the pastry cream is genius
My mom added a layer of jam between the bottom cake and the pastry cream. Yum!
Wow, this is exactly what i was looking for.
Look a very delicious 😋
Thanks from Brasil and Portugal ☺️
I think you are the only one who made that filling techniqe. I cant think of any baker who does that
I made this recipe two months ago and it was AMAZING!
Pls visit my channel for easy recipes.. Just a teen baker😊
Had this 50 years ago one of our favorite for years , making a lot of food from long ago now 🤗🤗
Thank you for the pastry, cream hack! Such a game changer.
The best Boston Cream Pie technique ever! Thanks a bunch!
He is so happy like a kid.. i like it
I don’t bake, I don’t eat cake very often but for some reason I adore this channel , especially when you bake, 😆 my dad was a baker in the 1930s, more bread than cake, maybe that’s it and you are so charming, also I love crime shows, I don’t do those “crimes” either😅😅😅whats the matter with me🤔, I love your uploads though, many thanks🌺🌸👍✌️
Boston cream pie is my absolute fave! When I was pregnant I couldn’t get enough! 🤤
My friend was telling me about this type of cake and instantly I thought, “I bet Preppy Kitchen has a recipe for it.” I’m so glad I’m right! I know what I’m doing today, thanks John! 🩵
Yum. I LOVE Boston creme cake! So good! 😋
Glad you like it too!
Thank you. I always wanted to eat Boston cream pie, but I don't live in Boston. You know what they say, if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself. So I did and it came out pretty good P:
Mr. Kanell that looks amazing I love Boston cream pie it’s one of my favorite ever since I’ve been a child now I live in Lebanon Pennsylvania it’s not Boston but it’s close I really like your show and I thank you for your entertainment
Love your tip for the custard layer! 👍🏻
This has to be said: you are sooo hilarious! Great recipes and great humor! I love watching you with my family! Keep up with the great videos John!! 😊
My mom and me love making your recipes so much! Thanks and this looks so amazing and yummy 😋
😍😍😍😍 I love boston cream pie! Pastry cream alone has a secret place in my heart.
Oh my GOSH!!! You absolutely saved the day with your filling trick!!! Thank you!❤️
You are a genius! The cream filling trick and the easiest ganache ever! New follower here

Thank you..
Is awhile since the last time I bake something... thank you for this recipe.. I just tried today.. I love it!!! The cream is amazing!
One of my favorite recipes to make from scratch myself very nice job and now I can improve my own recipe by watching You! Thank you!!! Looks Beautiful
I tried to make Boston cream cake long time ago and failed 😣
Let’s see how this one goes
Looks delicious 😋 by the way
Thank you for the recipe. I lost the recipe for Boston Cream Pie that I had many years ago. It also called for making a single layer sponge cake and then slicing it in half. A much better ratio of cake, custard and ganache. I can't wait to make this! Did you sense that I have been craving BCP? BTW Boston Cream Pie was created at The Parker House in Boston that was once renowned for the Hotel Restaurant there.
I just made this following another channel but after seeing your idea about cooking the custard in the same shape as the cake, brilliant👏I’m following your directions next time for sure. Such a beautiful presentation 😘
GENIUS IDEA WITH THE PASTRY CREME!
I love how he is always so happy and positive love your videos too
When I make a cake most of the time is breaks in half but John could juggle his cakes and they would like perfect
