A recipe I clipped from an article in Southern Living about family reunion recipes. This makes 2 pies, each pie serves about 6-8.
Ingredients:
2 9-inch pie shells, unbaked
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
6 large eggs
1 quart milk
1 1/2 cups evaporated milk (one 12 ounce can)
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Place each piecrust into an ungreased 9 deep dish pie plate and crimp edges with fingers to form a decorative rim.
2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
3. Prick the bottom of each piecrust with a fork several times, then pop the crusts into the heated oven for 5 minutes.
4. Remove from oven and sprinkle evenly with nutmeg.
5. Whisk together eggs,both types of milk,sugar, vanilla, and salt.
6. Pour into piecrusts and pop into the oven to bake for 7 minutes.
7. Lower the oven temperature to 325 F and bake another 35-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center tests clean.
8. Let cool on wire racks, then chill in fridge completely before serving.
