How to Make Old Fashion Egg Custard
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup all-purpose flour until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until light and frothy.
- Gradually whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until smooth. Slowly whisk in 2 cups of whole milk and 1 cup of heavy cream until fully incorporated.
- Pour the custard mixture into a prepared pie shell (9-inch).
- Place the pie shell in a larger baking pan. Carefully pour enough hot water into the larger pan to come halfway up the sides of the pie shell (this creates a water bath for even baking).
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the center is just set and no longer jiggles when gently shaken. The edges should be set and lightly golden.
- Remove from the water bath and let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours for optimal flavor and texture.
