Easy Custard Pie image

When we married, in December 1961, I still hadn't met his parents. In August 1962, we went to Fall City, WA, so that I could really connect with his folks.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 9-in. unbaked pie crust
4 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 c granulated sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/2 c scalded milk
nutmeg to sprinkle on top of pie

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 450. If your oven tends to run a bit hot, cover the edges of the pie crust with strips of foil.
  • 2. Thoroughly mix eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla.
  • 3. Gradually add scalded milk; pour immediately into unbaked pie shell. (To avoid spills, fill at the oven. I always put foil underneath the pie just in case any filling boils over. Burned milk is a mess to clean up, and it smells awful!)
  • 4. Sprinkle top with as much nutmeg as you want. We like a lot!
  • 5. Bake about 20 minutes or until a table knife inserted 1" from the side of filling comes out clean. The filling may look a little bit soft, but it will set later.
  • 6. This pie is best served slightly warm with either Cool Whip or whipped cream on top; however, we love it cold with toppings, too.
