Very good. I used fresh grated nutmeg, but you can also use cinnamon. I whisked while adding the hot milk and also add 10 more minutes to the baking time. I also like my custard pie cold so I put it in the refrigerator about 45 minutes before cutting. Preparation time is for filling only.
Ingredients:
4 eggs, beaten
2/3 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg or 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups scalded milk
1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
Directions:
1. Combine eggs, sugar, nutmeg or cinnamon, vanilla, and salt.
2. Add scalded milk a little at a time while whisking, so as not to cook the eggs.
3. When all is blended, pour into the unbaked pie shell.
4. Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes or until a knife inserted into center comes out clean.
