Experience the warm delight of Christmas Eve CinnamonVanilla Creamy Custard Pie with 5 rich flavors that make every bite unforgettable

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade, fully chilled)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar (firmly packed)
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Optional: a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg

    • Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Prepare the pie crust by placing your unbaked, chilled pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan. Use a fork to prick the bottom and sides lightly to keep the crust from bubbling up.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Add the packed brown sugar and whisk again to combine well.
  • Warm the milk and cream gently in a saucepan until just warm, not boiling. Pour the warm milk mixture slowly into the eggs and sugar while whisking to avoid cooking the eggs prematurely.
  • Add vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg (if using). Whisk these spices evenly into the custard base.
  • Pour the custard mixture into the prepared pie crust carefully to avoid spills.
  • Bake on the middle rack for 45 to 55 minutes. Check about 10 minutes before expected time. The custard should be mostly set with a slight jiggle in the center. Avoid overbaking.
  • Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Chill the pie in the fridge for at least 4 hours before serving to improve texture and flavor melding.
