Magic Crust Custard Pie

This magic crust custard pie is one of those wonderfully simple desserts that feels like kitchen magic. A thin batter transforms in the oven into a soft custard filling with its own delicate crust. Lightly sweet, creamy, and finished with a hint of nutmeg, it’s an old-fashioned favorite that’s as easy as it is comforting.

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup margarine or butter melted
  • 4 eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 cups milk 2%
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • nutmeg for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9-inch pie plate with butter.
  • Add margarine, eggs, sugar, salt, milk, vanilla, and flour to a blender. Blend for about 30 seconds until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pie plate, leaving a little space at the top.
  • Sprinkle the top lightly with nutmeg.
  • Bake for 45 minutes until the edges are set and the center has a slight wobble.
  • Cool on a wire rack for at least 20–30 minutes before slicing.

Notes

This pie forms its own light crust as it bakes. Letting it cool helps it set properly for clean slices, though it’s delicious slightly warm too.
