    I really enjoyed this pie. I did make a few adjustments. 1. I cooked my pie at 350 for 45 minutes and it came out great. 2. I added 1 cup of coconut. My family loved this pie. I will definitely keep this recipe.

    I have been trying for years to duplicate my late mother-in-law's recipe for rhubarb custard pie. I found this luscious looking custard pie recipe, added a couple of cups of rhubarb cooked very briefly in some sugar, and voila! My husband is thrilled. I'm sure it could be a base for other fruits, just be careful to subtract moisture added from the original recipe Laura in Spokane.

    I had never made a custard pie because I thought it would be a lot of work. This was an easy recipe to make, plus I made it easier by buying an already made deep dish crust. When I served it, I topped it with whipped cream. Delicious!

    1. Extremely hard to move pie from bottom rack to middle rack after 10 min of baking...slosh city!!
    2. Pie actually takes about an hour to bake at lower temp.
    Use total bake time at top of recipe as your guide rather than actual instructions.

    Otherwise, awesome recipe!

    The taste was delicious and it set up perfectly. For those of you having difficulty getting it into the oven without spilling it, I recommend setting your pie shell on a sturdy cookie sheet with raised edges and then filling the pie shell with the custard. Grab the cookie sheet by the edges and place on oven rack. I didn't spill a drop!

    The most difficult part of making this was trying to put it in the oven without
    spilling any. No success there. It was very good but next time I think, I'll try less milk and 1 or 2 egg yolks rather than whole eggs. That'll be even custardy and better.

    This recipe is Gross. pie is inconsistant in flavor, texture and appearance. Do'nt waste your flour, sugar,eggs,milk,half and half or the 1/2 teaspoon of salt and vanilla extract on this.I wanna know how this won first place in any contest. I've had better pie in an easybake oven.

    My father-in-law requests this pie every week when I visit. It must be good and also it has a long shelf life in the fridge!

    I baked this pie for my husband and he was so happy that he cleaned the kitchen AND gave me a back rub. The baking time described is too short, but maybe being at 7200 ft elevation makes a difference.
