Ingredients

Scale

1 unbaked pie crust (store-bought works like a charm, no judgments here!)
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup milk
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Kick things off by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This is crucial for the pie to bake evenly and create that golden perfection!
Whisk it Up: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, flour, and salt. Give it a good whisk until everything is well-blended—think of it as giving your ingredients a little spa day!
Mix the Creamy Goodness: In another bowl, combine the heavy cream, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs. Stir until you have a delightful mixture that looks and smells divine.
Combine the Mixtures: Gradually pour the cream mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring continuously. This is where the magic happens! You’ll notice the mixture transforming into a velvety smooth pie filling.
Into the Crust: Pour that creamy filling into your unbaked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Bake to Perfection: Pop it in the oven and let it bake for about 45-50 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the filling is set and the top is lightly golden. (But seriously, keep an eye on it—you don’t want it to be a mystery pie!)
Cool Down: Once it’s baked, let the pie cool down before serving. This step is vital; it helps the filling set beautifully and makes for easier slicing.

Notes

Store-Bought Crust: Don’t be shy to use a premade crust! It saves time and effort, and nobody has to know! 😉
Keeping it Fresh: If you have leftovers (if!), store them in the fridge, and they’ll stay fresh for about 3-4 days. Just make sure to cover it well.
Elevate the Flavor: Want to add a little twist? Try sprinkling some nutmeg or cinnamon on top before serving. Your taste buds will thank you!
