Zubereitung von Old Fashioned Custard Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¼ teaspoon salt until light and frothy.
- In a separate saucepan, heat 2 cups whole milk until small bubbles form around the edges (scalded). Slowly whisk about 1 cup of the hot milk into the egg mixture to temper the eggs. Then whisk in the remaining milk until smooth.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
- Pour the custard mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into an unbaked 9-inch pie crust.
- Sprinkle the top evenly with ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Place the pie in a larger baking pan. Pour enough hot water into the larger pan to come halfway up the sides of the pie plate (this creates a water bath to prevent cracking).
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is just set but still slightly wobbly. A knife inserted near the center should come out with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Remove from the water bath and let cool completely on a wire rack. The filling will continue to set as it cools.
- Chill thoroughly in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving. Top with fresh whipped cream and enjoy!
