This recipe turned out great! The eater wanted something sweeter, so I doubled the sugar and used honey instead. Worked pretty well.

It's a good, simple recipe! I make my own pie crust, and it pairs up nicely. I also use six egg yolks (left over from another recipe) instead of two eggs. Makes for a richer taste.

I used graham cracker crumb crust - BAD IDEA. Half of it absorbed into the crumbs, the rest formed an omlette-like layer on top. Woops. I'm dealing with a husband that doesn't like pastry crust, so maybe what I need to do is make the custard pudding seperately, and dump it into a graham-cracker crumb crust before serving. I'll give that a go.

Good but there isn't a lot of quantity in the filling. It isn't a thick as it is in the picture.

I used 3 eggs and NEVER scald my milk... Always use a 9 inch un-baked pie crust and nutmeg to dust the top of the pie... cooked at 425 for 10 minutes and then @ 325 for an add'l 35- 45 minutes... I always allow the pie to cool 1 hour on a rack and then refrigerate to cool... delicious....

I know this recipe, and most definitely it's still the best custard pie I've had. I had made one at Christmas and my sister sat down right next to me. As we reminised about Christmases past when our mom made all the goodies, we just couldn't wait until it cooled. We began to just nibble at first, but then it turned to bigger and bigger bites. Before we knew it, it was all gone. Of course when the kids came in from making "snow angels" they got the whiff of something good. hehehehe They were so disappointed to find out it was all gone. Since it's a really super easy pie to make, we ended up making three more later that night. One for my sister, one for me & one for the rest of them. Somehow, though, they didn't think that was fair.(I still laugh thinking about it.)
