My boyfriend loves Custard Pie and says this is the best he's ever had. I'm not usually too fond of this type of pie, but I thought it was excellent. I added the extra egg yolk and beat the mixture in my electric mixer until light and fluffy, before adding scalded 1/2 & 1/2, instead of milk. I used a frozen 9" deep dish pie crust and had a small amount of the mixture left over. Probably from beating it, rather than just mixing it. This is a definite keeper!

I wanted to try this recipe because my father loves custard pie. It was so easy, my six year old and I made it together. The results were magnificent. My father loved it. I will definitely make this again. Thanks!

I made this pie for Thanksgiving and I have to say it was fantastic! I am now a bona fide Custard Pie lover! I did pour my custard mixture through a strainer into the pie crust just to make sure there weren't any weird little cooked egg bits. Great, Great recipe- I'm putting it in my "To make again" file.

My husband, previously a custard-phobe, L-O-V-E-S this pie. I do use a mix of half and half and milk instead of 100% milk and it is so creamy. Yum. This has now become a family staple.

This is my all time favorite pie. Wher I come from.. all the bakeries have it but I moved away and none of the bakeries made it. I found this recipe and it was exactly like the pies back home. Thank you!

With a little trial and error, this turned out great. At first, I was supervising my 12 yr. old daughter with the recipe, we were busy doing one thing and as a result we burned the milk instead of scalding it. :( Having to do the milk again slowed us down but the end result was a hit! Also, instead of store bought crust, we made it using Emeril Lagasse's crust recipe and it turned out fantastic! My daughter & I had fun making this together and you can bet that this recipe will definitly be used again. ;)

This pie brought back memories of my childhood! I cheated and used a frozen pie crust, the egg white (used the extra yolk in the mix) kept the crust from getting 'gummy' but next time (and there WILL be a next time) I will bake it a little first. I covered the pie edges with foil just in case. I had left over heavy cream so substituted 1/2 cup of that for some of the milk. Add the scalded milk very, very slowly to your egg mixture or otherwise the eggs cook and scramble, and that's why it will taste 'eggy.' I had no problems with water pooling in pie pan - maybe those people had condensation issues, so make sure your pie is cool before placing in fridge. The custard is delicious - it tastes almost like vanilla creme brulee! Thanks for the great recipe!

I made this for a 76-year-old woman I am taking care of. She said her mom used to make it all the time and she said it was pretty close. I would definitely make it again. However, next time I will fill the pie pan in the oven because carrying it over resulted in spilling all over the pan. It was a very smooth texture and it didn't taste like scrambled eggs at all. Thank you for this recipe.

This is the best egg custard pie I have ever made. It came out absolutely perfect! It reminded me of the egg custard pie that my mother made often during my childhood.

MMMMMMM. I used a can of evaporated milk and added fresh milk to equal 2-1/2 cups. That was my mom's secret. Rich and delicious. I forgot how easy it is to make custard pie. Use the Easy Pie Crust recipe on this site and you won't need to glaze the shell with egg white or roll it out. Super quick and easy. I'm going to make this pie often. Everyone has these ingredients on hand.
