Ma's Egg Custard Pie

[hollyking]

Tonight for Crafty Night I baked a custard pie because some_other_word requested one. It was a hit and I was asked for the recipe so here it is for everyone.

4 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 dash salt
2 cups milk
1/2 tsp nutmeg
Single pie crust

Line a 9" pie pan with the unbaked crust. Beat the eggs then add the milk, sugar, salt and nutmeg. Mix well and pour into the pie crust. Sprinkle the top with nutmeg. Bake at 350F for 50 minutes or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool.

Enjoy!

What kind of milk?

[hollyking.livejournal.com]

I used 2% because that's what we had. I would use whole milk in the future.

what, no 'nilla?

Nope. I don't think a bit would hurt. :)

You know, if you upped the nutmeg a bit, added some brandy and a touch of vanilla, that would probably taste like egg nog. Just thinking.....
