Ingredients
Scale
Custard Filling
- 3 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Pie Crust
- 1 9-inch pie crust
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Place your oven rack in the lowest position and preheat oven to 325°F to ensure even baking of the custard pie.
- Prepare custard mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and whole milk until fully combined. Add the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt, then whisk again until smooth and well mixed.
- Fill pie crust: Pour the custard mixture into the unbaked 9-inch pie crust, spreading it evenly to the edges.
- Bake the pie: Place the pie on the lowest oven rack and bake for about 50 minutes, or until the custard is set and the crust turns golden brown.
- Cool and serve: Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature before serving. You can also refrigerate and serve chilled according to your preference. Enjoy!
Notes
- For best results, make sure the eggs are at room temperature before mixing to ensure a smooth custard.
- Use a glass or metal pie dish for even heat distribution when baking.
- If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil to prevent burning.
- Chilling the pie enhances the custard texture and flavor, making it a great make-ahead dessert.
- Ground nutmeg can be substituted with ground allspice if desired for a different spice profile.
