Xmas custard pie recipe with cinnamon vanilla Creamy festive dessert for your holiday table Perfect makeahead treat for Christmas Eve

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place your unbaked pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges as desired. Set it aside.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and milk. Warm the mixture until it just begins to steam, but do not let it boil. Remove from heat.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together until they are well combined and slightly pale.
  • Add the flour, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the egg mixture. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is completely smooth and no lumps remain.
  • Slowly pour the warm cream and milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly. This gradual process tempers the eggs and prevents them from scrambling.
  • Carefully pour the completed custard filling into the unbaked pie crust.
  • Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips and bake for 45-55 minutes. The pie is done when the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle (like Jell-O).
  • Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the custard to set fully.
  • Before serving, top with a generous dollop of whipped cream and a light dusting of cinnamon.

Notes

A cozy, comforting cinnamon-vanilla custard pie that’s surprisingly simple to make and the perfect centerpiece for your holiday table.
