OLD FASHIONED CUSTARD PIE



Old Fashioned Custard Pie image

Growing up we had this pie every year at Thanksgiving and Christmas. It's simple but decadent. If you've never had Custard Pie before, it's a little bit like Creme Brulee in a pie crust. This is wonderful served chilled with REAL whipped cream. Enjoy.

Categories     Pie

Time 50m

Yield 1 8" pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

9 inches unbaked pie shells
2 1/2 cups whole milk or 2 1/2 cups half-and-half cream, scalded
3 eggs, lightly beaten
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon real vanilla extract
ground nutmeg, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • In a large bowl whisk together eggs, sugar and salt.
  • Slowly whisk in scalded milk a little at a time to prevent cooking the egg mixture.
  • Stir in vanilla.
  • Pour, through a sieve, into the unbaked pie shell.
  • Sprinkle top with ground nutmeg.
  • Bake for approximately 40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  • Filling will look wobbly but will set up as it cools.
  • Chill thoroughly and serve with whipped cream.

Tips:

  • To ensure a smooth custard filling, whisk the eggs and sugar together until they are well combined and slightly thickened.
  • When adding the hot milk to the egg mixture, do so slowly and gradually, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from curdling.
  • Bake the custard pie in a water bath to prevent the custard from curdling and to ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • To check if the custard pie is done, insert a toothpick into the center of the pie. If it comes out clean, the pie is done.
  • Let the custard pie cool completely before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the custard to set.

Conclusion:

Custard pie is a classic dessert that is both delicious and easy to make. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a creamy, decadent custard pie that will be the star of your next gathering.
