Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2.25 cup whole milk
  • 0.7 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.55 cup baking mix all-purpose pancake/biscuit-style mix
  • 2.5 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 0.5 cup beaten eggs about 3 large eggs
  • 1.25 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 0.13 tsp fine salt
  • 0.3 tsp ground nutmeg

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch pie plate.
  • Melt the butter and let it cool for two minutes.
  • Whisk the sugar with the beaten eggs until slightly foamy.
  • Add milk, baking mix, vanilla, salt, nutmeg, and melted butter. Blend until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into the pie plate. Tap gently to release bubbles.
  • Bake 45–50 minutes until golden and center barely jiggles. Cool before slicing.

Notes

For a richer custard, swap in half-and-half for 1/2 cup of the milk. Dust the top with cinnamon sugar after baking, or add a handful of toasted coconut for a tropical twist. Chill leftovers tightly covered for up to 3 days; the texture firms beautifully.
