MY GRANDMOTHERS CUSTARD PIE
preheat oven to 450
put an unbaked pie crust into the 10’’ glass deep Pyrex pie plate
5 large beaten eggs 3/4 cup sugar 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla 4 cups half and half (quart)* *if you use 1 cup fruit use only 3 1/2 cups of half and half
Pour custard filling into the unbaked pie crust that is in the large 10'' glass Pyrex pie plate and bake 450 for 10 to 12 minutes than turn oven down to 350 for about 45 to 55 minutes or till a sharp steak knife comes out clean, I use a steak knife.
(You can add coconut or fresh fruit to this before putting in pan.) Do not use frozen or canned fruit, because it will get runny and not set. You can toast (or not) coconut and add and is also very good but this custard pie is great as it is and is hubby’s all time favorite next to funny cake.
