Cherish, I would be happy to repost the recipes. It is from a 1950 cookbook called
Custard Pie From: The American Family Cook Book, 1950
plain pastry (here the recipe goes into detail about lining the pie pan and fluting - just do your regular)
3 eggs, slightly beaten 3/4 cup sugar 1/2 tsp salt 3 cups bottled milk (I would assume this means pasturized) 1 tsp vanilla
Combine the eggs, sugar and salt. Add the milk and vanilla, pour into the unbaked pastry shell. Bake at 450 degrees in a preheated oven for 30-40 min. or until a silver knife inserted in the center comes out clean (why silver, I don't know).
Caramel Custard Melt and brown the sugar in frying pan before adding in recipe for custard pie.
Coconut Custard Pie Add 1/4 cup shredded coconut to custard mixture in recipe for custard pie.
It goes on to show 8 more variations, including coffee, squash, and date, to name a few of the more unusual.
