Single recipe for pie crust or a store-bought pie shell (9-inch size)

4 large eggs, at room temperature

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 tsp. salt (table, kosher or sea)

1–1/2 cups whole milk

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a 9-inch pie pan with pie crust and place pan on a baking sheet. Set aside in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before filling.

Whisk together eggs, sugar, salt, milk, cream and vanilla until smooth. Strain mixture through a sieve into the prepared pie shell. Sprinkle with ground nutmeg.
