Nectarine Custard Pie
3/4 cup (180 ml) sugar
1/3 cup (80 ml) all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp (2 ml) ground nutmeg
1 cup (250 ml) heavy cream or half-and-half
4-5 nectarines, pitted and sliced into wedges
1 9-inch unbaked pastry shell
Who says there is no such thing as a recipe for nectarines? Actually, this was originally a recipe for a peach pie, which you may certainly use instead of nectarines.
Combine the sugar, flour, and nutmeg in a mixing bowl, stirring to combine well. Stir in the cream to make a thin, smooth mixture. Arrange the nectarine slices attractively in the pastry shell and pour in the liquid mixture. Bake in a preheated 400F (200C) oven for 50 minutes, then turn the heat down to 350F (180C) and continue to bake until the custard has set, about 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature and chill for at least 1 hour before serving. Serves 6 to 8.
