Ingredients
- 1 9-inch crust Pie crust (homemade or store-bought)
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 0.75 cups Sugar
- 3 units Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Place the 9-inch pie crust in a pie dish, trimming any excess and crimping the edges as desired. Set aside.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it is just warm. Do not bring it to a boil.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, salt, and ground nutmeg until smooth and well combined.
Step 5
Slowly pour the warmed milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from curdling.
Step 6
Once combined, pour the custard filling into the prepared pie crust.
Step 7
Carefully transfer the pie to the preheated oven, and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the custard is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
Step 8
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack.
Step 9
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to ensure the custard is fully set.
Step 10
Slice and enjoy your Duncan's Egg Custard Pie!
