09 Step
Recipe View
Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to fully set. (60 minutes)
For an extra layer of flavor, consider browning the butter before creaming it with the sugar. This will add a nutty depth to the pie.
If the pie crust edges are browning too quickly during baking, cover them with foil or a pie shield.
The pie is best served at room temperature or slightly chilled.
Use fresh, high-quality nutmeg for the most aromatic flavor.
