I made this pie tonight and unfortunately it didn’t turn out. I followed the directions exactly. It came out not very brown (I added an extra 15 minutes to the original 45 min bake time). It is not very sweet or custard like. Kind of tastes like mushy milky scrambled eggs. I want to get this recipe right. Maybe I should do 1 cup of sugar instead of 3/4 cup? And try blending it longer than 30 seconds? If anyone has any tricks that worked for them please let me know. I really want this to work.

I used real butter and self rising flour. Turned out great

I made this I had to use butter cause it was a snow storm and couldn’t get tot the store. It came out very thin, the photo looks thicker and richer, what did I do wrong? Any ideas – also there is liquid on the bottom, it tastes really good but something went wrong.

My pie turns out just like the picture. I’ve made it several times and each time it comes out very well. My trick is I cook it a little longer and increase the temp to 375 for the last 10 min.

my 7yr old made this for her very first pie.It was great.when I seen this I just knew she would have no problem understanding the receipt and using the blinder instead of mixer was also great for her first.I ate evey bit while she was sleeping all she had was the one peace she tried right after she got it from the oven.
Just a great little starter pie Thanks for the receipt

Apparently it will work fine with butter. There’s a butter and coconut version on the Land-O-Lakes Web site, but the comment rules prevent me from providing a link to it, so you’ll need to google Magic Coconut Custard Pie. Sorry!!

My mom and i make this custard with coconut. Our recipe is called “impossible pie.” We use whole milk . Our crust never comes above the custard, but it is still delicious.

I also had the question about why the picture looked like it has a crust above the custard. It kinda looks like a pie shell was used but i dont know. I have had this before and it is very tasty but mine never looks as good as the pictures do!

I made this last night by the recipe and it did not turn out as brown as the picture. My crust did not come up above the Custard either. I also used Pumpkin Pie spice on top instead of the Nutmeg. Can someone tell me how to get it so brown?
