Very good. I used fresh grated nutmeg, but you can also use cinnamon. I whisked while adding the hot milk and also add 10 more minutes to the baking time. I also like my custard pie cold so I put it in the refrigerator about 45 minutes before cutting. Preparation time is for filling only. Ingredients:
4 eggs, beaten |
2/3 cup white sugar |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg or 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 cups scalded milk |
1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust |
Directions:
1. Combine eggs, sugar, nutmeg or cinnamon, vanilla, and salt. 2. Add scalded milk a little at a time while whisking, so as not to cook the eggs. 3. When all is blended, pour into the unbaked pie shell. 4. Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes or until a knife inserted into center comes out clean. |
