Ingredients

• 1 9-inch crust Pre-made pie crust
• 2.5 cups Whole milk
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 4 whole Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Roll out your pre-made pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges as desired.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, warm the milk over low heat until just slightly warm, but not boiling. Remove from heat.

Step 4

In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Slowly pour the warmed milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to combine. This ensures the eggs do not scramble.

Step 6

Strain the custard mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps or impurities, and pour it into the prepared pie crust.

Step 7

Sprinkle the ground nutmeg evenly over the top of the custard.

Step 8

Carefully place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the custard is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature before serving. For best results, chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours before slicing.

Step 10

Slice into 8 equal portions and serve plain or with whipped cream for garnish.
