Ingredients

1 9-inch unbaked pie crust
1 egg white (lightly beaten)
3 whole eggs plus one egg yolk (beaten)
¾ cup sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ½ cups whole milk
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Steps:

If using a frozen pie crust, allow it to thaw at room temperature according to its package directions.
Prick the crust all over with the tines of a fork.
Brush thoroughly with beaten egg white. This helps prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
Set the crust aside.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
In a medium bowl, add the beaten eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla. Beat together.
Using a wire whisk, add the milk.
Place the prepared pie crust on a baking sheet.
Pour the egg and milk mixture into the pie crust filling baking cups with any excess mixture.
Sprinkle the top with nutmeg.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a cooling rack.
May be served either cold or at room temperature.
