Restaurant Style Egg Custard Pie

Restaurant Style Egg Custard Pie Recipe

Makes one 9-inch pie

This is an old-fashioned, delicately sweet custard with a creamy center, golden surface, and a flaky pie crust. Restaurants prepare it simply but with careful control of temperature and balance—this recipe captures that style.

INGREDIENTS

For the Pie Crust (Use Your Preferred Crust or This One)

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
3–4 tablespoons ice water

(You can also use a store-bought refrigerated crust if preferred.)

For the Custard Filling

4 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
2 cups whole milk (or 1 cup whole milk + 1 cup half-and-half for a richer “restaurant” texture)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (plus a little extra for dusting the top)
Optional: a pinch of cinnamon (some diners add this, some don’t)
Optional for silkier custard: 2 tablespoons melted butter

⭐ INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prepare the Pie Crust

In a bowl, combine flour, salt, and sugar.
Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add ice water 1 tablespoon at a time and mix until the dough holds together.
Shape into a disc, wrap, and chill at least 30 minutes.
Roll out on a lightly floured surface and fit into a 9-inch pie plate.
Trim edges and crimp as desired.
Chill again while preparing the custard to prevent shrinking.

Optional Restaurant Tip

Brush the crust lightly with beaten egg white before filling—this creates a moisture barrier and keeps the crust crisp.

2. Make the Custard Filling

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar until smooth but not foamy.
Foamy custard can cause bubbles on top; restaurants avoid too much whisking.
Heat milk (or milk + half-and-half) until just warm—not boiling.
Warm liquid helps dissolve sugar and creates a gentler bake.
Slowly whisk warm milk into the eggs and sugar.
Stir in vanilla, salt, and melted butter if using.
Pour through a fine mesh strainer into a large measuring cup or bowl—
This is a classic restaurant technique for ultra-smooth custard.

3. Fill and Bake the Pie

Place pie shell on a baking sheet for easy handling.
Pour custard into crust.
Lightly dust the top with nutmeg.
Bake for 40–55 minutes, depending on your oven.

How to Know It’s Done

The edges should be set.
The center should have a gentle wobble, not liquid.
A knife inserted 1 inch from the crust should come out clean.

Restaurant Tip

If the crust browns too fast, cover edges with foil halfway through baking.

4. Cool Properly

Let the pie cool at room temperature for at least 2 hours.
Refrigerate afterward for best slicing.
Serve cool or chilled—most restaurants serve it cold so pieces cut cleanly.

⭐ TEXTURE NOTES (Restaurant Style)

A true restaurant custard pie is:

smooth, not grainy
mildly sweet
silky like flan but firmer
lightly flavored with nutmeg
pale yellow, not overly browned

This method produces that exact finish.

⭐ SERVING SUGGESTIONS

Sprinkle extra nutmeg or cinnamon before serving.
Add whipped cream for a diner-style presentation.
For a fancier restaurant feel, serve with fresh berries or a drizzle of caramel.

⭐ STORAGE

Keeps 3–4 days refrigerated.
Do not freeze—custard can separate.

Lattice Coconut-Egg Custard Pie

Yield: One 9-inch deep-dish pie
Texture: Silky custard filling, toasted coconut flavor, flaky crust, golden lattice top
Difficulty: Moderate (custard + lattice assembly)
Flavor Profile: Creamy, lightly sweet, coconut-rich, buttery, classic holiday pie

Ingredients

For the Pie Crust (Two-Crust Recipe for Lattice Top)

Use homemade or store-bought. Homemade option:

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, diced
6–8 tablespoons ice-cold water

Shortcut: 1 box refrigerated pie crusts (2 rounds).

For the Coconut–Egg Custard Filling

4 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup evaporated milk (optional but adds old-fashioned richness)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon coconut extract (optional but wonderful)
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut, divided
2 tablespoons butter

For the Lattice Top

Second crust, cut into 10–12 strips
1 egg (for egg wash)
2 tablespoons cream or milk
1 tablespoon sugar for sprinkling

🥣 Step-by-Step Instructions (LONG, DETAILED)

1. Make or Prepare the Pie Dough

If making homemade:

Whisk flour, salt, and sugar.
Add cold butter and cut in until pea-sized crumbs form.
Add ice water gradually until dough comes together.
Divide into two disks, wrap, and chill 1–2 hours.

If using store-bought:
Keep both crusts chilled until ready to assemble.

2. Prepare the Custard Filling

A stovetop pre-thickened custard prevents a runny pie.

In a medium saucepan, whisk together: eggs, sugar, salt, and cornstarch.
Slowly whisk in the whole milk, heavy cream, and evaporated milk.
Place over medium heat.
Cook, whisking constantly, until mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- This takes 6–10 minutes.
- Do NOT boil—gentle steam only.
Remove from heat.
Stir in vanilla, coconut extract, butter, and ¾ cup of the coconut.
Let the custard cool 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Note: The custard will thicken in the oven again, but this step prevents sogginess and spills.

3. Prepare the Bottom Crust

Roll one crust into a 9-inch deep pie plate.
Trim edges leaving a slight overhang.
Prick bottom lightly with fork.
Chill in refrigerator while making the lattice.

Chilling prevents shrinking and sogginess.

4. Make the Lattice Strips

Roll out the second crust.
Using a pastry wheel or sharp knife, cut 10–12 strips about ½–¾ inch wide.
Lay strips on a baking sheet and refrigerate so they stay firm.

5. Fill the Pie

Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of coconut over the bottom crust.
- This toasts in the oven and acts as a moisture barrier.
Pour the custard filling into the chilled crust.
Smooth the top.

6. Assemble the Lattice Top

Classic Weave Technique:

Lay 5–6 strips parallel across the pie.
Fold back every other strip halfway.
Lay one strip horizontally across.
Unfold the strips.
Fold back the alternating strips and add the next strip.
Repeat until a full lattice is created.

Trim excess dough, tuck edges under, and crimp decoratively.

7. Add Egg Wash

Whisk together:

1 egg
2 tablespoons cream

Brush the lattice gently.
Sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar over the top for sparkle and browning.

8. Bake the Pie

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Bake:

15 minutes at 375°F (to set the crust)
Reduce heat to 350°F (175°C) and bake 35–45 minutes more

The custard should:

appear set around the edges
jiggle slightly in the center
have a golden, lightly toasted lattice top

If browning too fast, tent with foil.

9. Cool Properly

Let the pie cool on a rack for 3–4 hours.

Do NOT cut early—custard needs time to fully set.

10. Chill (Optional but Recommended)

For a firmer, sliceable custard:
Refrigerate 2–4 hours or overnight.

Serve chilled or room-temperature.

🥥 Serving Suggestions

Dust lightly with powdered sugar
Serve with whipped cream
Add toasted coconut on top
Pair with fresh pineapple or berries for a tropical touch

⭐ Variations

1. Toasted Coconut Version

Toast coconut in a dry skillet until golden
Mix into custard for deeper flavor

2. Old-Fashioned MILK PIE with Coconut

Replace heavy cream with whole milk
Add a pinch of nutmeg on top
Bake longer, thinner custard

3. Coconut Cream–Custard Hybrid

Add 1 tablespoon cream cheese to the warm custard
Makes a richer, silkier slice

4. Golden Coconut Lattice

Brush strips with coconut milk instead of cream
Sprinkle finely shredded coconut on top

5. Deep-South Cornmeal Custard Style

Add 1 tablespoon fine cornmeal to the milk mixture for a thicker, more rustic custard

⭐ Tips for a Perfect Coconut–Egg Custard Pie

Use sweetened shredded coconut for best texture and aroma.
Don’t overcook the stovetop custard—thicken but do not boil.
Chill dough and lattice strips; warm dough collapses.
Let it cool fully or custard will be loose.
Brushing with cream gives a deep golden lattice.
Tent with foil if the lattice darkens too quickly.

OTHER RECIPES

1 each pie shell (9 inch) baked
4 large eggs slightly beaten
1/2 cup sugar granulated
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups milk
1/2 cup coconut shredded

Bake 35 min., or till silver knife inserted in center comes out clean.
Cool at room temperature.
When shell and custard are cool, melt chocolate with shortening over hot, not boiling, water.
Meanwhile, slip custard into shell this way: Tilt custard-filled pie plate a bit.
With small spatula, gently pull custard away from all sides of plate.

To complete loosening, hold plate level with both hands; shake gently.
