OLD FASHIONED EGG CUSTARD RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees
• Heat the milk in a large saucepan until bubbles form around the edges. Toss the eggs, sugar, and salt in a blender and give it a few pulses until nice and smooth.
• Once the milk is hot, remove it from the stove top. Slowly add the milk into the eggs while whisking vigorously.
• Once the milk and eggs are combined, stir in the vanilla.
• Pour the custard mixture into a 9×13 casserole dish {or small custard cups} and sprinkle with freshly grated nutmeg. Place the casserole dish in a large roasting pan and fill the pan with enough water to reach about 1 inch from the top of the casserole dish.
• Bake for about 45 minutes or until the custard has just set. Be careful not to over cook.

OLD FASHIONED EGG CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Dock the pastry shell all over with the tines of a fork. This will keep it from buckling. Bake for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, and nutmeg. Whisk in the flour, a little at a time, until well blended.
• For easy transport, set the pie plate on a tray. Pour the egg mixture into the baked pie shell and move the whole tray carefully over to the stovetop. Open the oven and slowly transfer the pie plate to the oven rack.
• Bake at 400 degrees F for 10 minutes, reduce heat to 325 degrees F and bake an additional 20 to 30 minutes or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Cool to room temperature before serving. Store leftovers in refrigerator.
