1 pie crust, deep-dish store-bought or homemade

5 large eggs

3 C whole milk

1 T pure vanilla extract

1 C granulated sugar

1/4 tsp salt

1 sprinkle nutmeg, cinnamon, or mace

Beat eggs in a large mixing bowl with vanilla, sugar and salt then stir in milk. Pour mixture through a strainer into an unbaked pie crust and sprinkle with your choice of spice. Bake at 425 degrees for ten minutes then lower the heat to 325 degrees and continue to bake for 50-55 minutes. The edges will be set but the center will still be wiggly. Do not allow filling to bubble. Chill four hours or overnight. Be sure to use a deep-dish pie plate or you will have too much filling.
