Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Eggnog Pie.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure your pie bakes evenly and comes out perfectly set. Next, take your pie crust and gently press it into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming any excess crust from the edges. To prevent the crust from puffing up while baking, fill it with rice or pie weights. Pop it into the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until it’s lightly golden brown. While the crust is baking, grab a large mixing bowl and combine the eggnog, sugar, cornstarch, eggs, egg whites, vanilla extract, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Whisk everything together until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Once your crust is ready, carefully pour the eggnog mixture into the crust, spreading it evenly. Return the pie to the oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the filling is set in the center. You’ll know it’s done when a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. After baking, let the pie cool before serving. This will help the filling firm up even more, making each slice a delight. Enjoy your creamy eggnog pie with a sprinkle of extra nutmeg or cinnamon on top for that festive touch!
How to Serve
Serve chilled or at room temperature, garnished with whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg for a festive touch.
How to Store
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days. This pie can also be frozen for longer storage; just make sure to wrap it tightly to prevent freezer burn.
