Custard Pie

This is an old family recipe. When I make this, I am happily transported back to my youth. We had this frequently, either as pie or baked custard. It was one of my my Dad's favorite pies or desserts. It was so much fun to cook for him, because he was so kind. (If I burned the toast, he assured me it was just how he liked it best!) Anyway, this recipe makes either wonderful pie or baked custard -- or baked rice pudding.

4 eggs
2 c. milk
1 c. sugar
salt
nutmeg

Beat together, turn into single unbaked crust for immediate baking.

To test for doneness, insert knife in center; should have just a 'little' of the mixture clinging to the knife, as the heat of the custard will finish the cooking (as with pumpkin pie).

Spread the word
