This is a very good custard. It is too sweet so I will cut the sugar next time. The butter came to the top and puddled so I will not use it next time. I also will bake the crust for 10 minutes instead of 5 as it wasn't done enough. But I recommend this recipe as it is easy and very good.

This pie was really easy to make. I used Soy milk instead of milk. My boyfriend is lactose. I was reading most of the reviews and most people said that it had to much nutmeg. So I used 1/4tsp of nutmeg. It came out great! It taste better when it’s cold. You can taste all the flavors.

I just made this pie and I must say it was fabulous! I was looking for something similar to my grandmother's Mississippi Egg Pie and this was pretty spot on to how I remember hers. Only difference was I added 1/2 tsp of cinnamon... strangely I agree that there was a bit munch nutmeg. Maybe next time I'll keep the cinnamon the same and scale the nutmeg back some. That's what I thought anyway. My husband just devoured his piece and smiled. *UPDATE* I made this again after quite a long while. I'd forgotten about the nutmeg and I didnt check the comments so I baked the recipe as posted ahead of time for Thanksgiving. We served it straight from the fridge and this time I noticed no after taste, whereas last time we fell on it just as soon as it came out of the oven.

This was really yummy, and this coming from someone who doesn't usually like custard! Custard Pie is my husband's favorite pie for Thanksgiving and I wanted to find a light recipe the whole family could enjoy. I read some of the reviews first, and cut the nutmeg down to 1/8 tsp, instead of 1/2, because I don't like an after-taste, and I did add 1/8 tsp of cinnamon. It formed a nice light crusty top and was very thin, so next time I will try doubling the recipe to fill up the pastry. All-in-all, though, a very yummy tasting dessert for the whole family's taste buds!!

Pat this was my first attempt at making an egg custard pie. It was wonderful. I used margarine instead of butter because we had the margarine and no butter. It still was really good. May try the butter next time to see the difference. My mom said just before she tried it not to be suprised if the crust was soggy. It wasen't. She and several family members said it was really good. Thanks for the great and easy recipe. I will definitely be making this again.

I made this recipe without the crust. (I put them in individual custard dishes.) Both my fiance and I really enjoyed this dessert. There may be a bit too much nutmeg (could only tell because of the after taste) but still a really delicious recipe.

Way too much nutmeg for my taste. Not what I was expecting for egg custard pie. The pie butter sitting on top. Strange.

White the custard filling is OK, this recipe doesn't work for me. I blended the ingedients very well, but the some of the butter was absorbed by the crust. I prefer recipes that don't have butter in the custard. I won't make it again.

My family and I enjoyed this pie. I love the fact that it took minimal effort to make! The thick consistency of the custard flavored with nutmeg was a big hit. My children have already requested another!

Had a nice taste, easy to make but it is the "solid heavy type pie" not like the more "custard" styles. Less nutmeg if I try it again.

I thought this pie was too sweet and had too much nutmeg. Perhaps I shall adjust these to my taste and it should be ok.
