Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Pie Crust
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and prick the bottom with a fork.
- Bake the crust for 10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
Make the Custard Filling
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk, sugar, and salt. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is warm, but not boiling.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon.
- Slowly pour the warm milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to temper the eggs.
- Pour the custard filling into the pre-baked pie crust.
Bake the Pie
- Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the custard is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours.
Serve
- Slice the pie and serve with whipped cream on top, garnished with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
