grandma's cookbook . . . Custard Pie

One of my all-time favorite pies is Custard Pie . . . particularly when it has been chilled in the refrigerator! So, since it is the Great American Pie Month I thought it would be a good time to share a custard pie recipe with you!

Directions -

• Mix together eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla. Stir well. Blend in milk. 
• Pour custard mixture into piecrust. Sprinkle with nutmeg.
• Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a knife inserted near center comes out clean. Cool on rack.
