If you're looking for an easy and delicious dessert that can be prepped in minutes, you'll defintely want to give this delicious pie a try!

Why is it called Magic Crust Custard Pie???

When baking, the flour settles to the bottom of the pie plate, creating a "magic crust."

This pie turns into some amazing custard goodness!

It's sweet, eggy and so filling! Make the slices smaller to go further, or if you're greedy like me, then cut the slices a little larger.

The top of the pie caramelizes, and becomes almost crunchy from the sugar browning on top, which is the perfect texture to go with the soft custard.

I first posted this recipe in 2012. There was much controversy in the comments section when I referred to the sugar browning, as "browned sugar."

Many people thought I meant there was brown sugar in the recipe, when it was just regular sugar. Those paragraphs are now gone with the post update today in 2019, so I'm sure the comments section will be much quieter now 😉

It's become our "go-to" dessert when we need something quick.

The ingredients are things we all typically have in our fridge and pantry, and while you're chatting with company, it can be baking in the oven!

    Sheena: I have tried various recipes I found on Pinterest, but have never written a comment until now. Being that it's only 2 days before Thanksgiving, and given the fact we will be cooking a traditional meal at home that day following a free Thanksgiving meal prepared and served at our church that morning (like 3 a.m.) I was looking for an easy pie recipe. It's just not Thanksgiving without a piece of pie, you know, however not everyone is a fan of pumpkin (me, I love it). I triex your recipe this afternoon so my family could try it. Dare I say it is gone! So I asked my wonderful hubby to assist me in preparing a couple to take to church. Less than 5 minutes later they were in the oven. He couldn't believe it...except that he saw it! The recipe is super easy with common ingredients (as you said) and is deliciously creamy and really makes a crust! I can see myself adding my own tweaks on favoring, and will definitely be making this pie for many years to come, a new family favorite! Thanks for sharing. Hope your holidays are as awesome as this recipe! :-) Sandi Miller, California

      Me too. I'm sure it's because the custard is baked too hot so it curdles. If you want a smooth, flan or creme brulee-like texture, the oven temperature must be lower. I wonder if you baked this in a water bath if you could still get the "magic crust" and crispy top? This wasn't our favorite, but I'm glad I finally tried the mythical magic crust thing all over Pinterest.

      It doesn't say brown sugar... It says "browned sugar". Two completely different things. When granulated sugar browns from baking it gets crunchy. I'm sorry if my wording bothers you, if so, just go ahead and skip to the recipe. Thanks for stopping by!

      Sheena,hoteatsandcoolreads@gmail.com I had to read threw all the comments above. I was trying to find out were the brown sugar? Were it went in the recipe and if others saw that too... I too read it the same was as many others. I went to this recipe because of the brown sugar. I have made many recipe's much like this one and thought the brown sugar on top was interesting!It would be nice if you could maybe go rewrite the section on the brown sugar comment? So you wont get asked about it over and over again. I am very shocked at the rude comment themindoftwister made Above! Calling people that made comments asking about were the brown sugar was! This themindoftwister posting an uncalled for rude comment on this page! Calling people Damn Fools and to Go Away because of asking about the brown sugar!!! Do you really not want people to ask you questions about a recipe they do not quite understand??? We are simple people interested in this recipe of yours. Or we would not have bother to come this site. I do think I will try this recipe and just sprinkle some brown sugar on the top before baking to see how it turns out... And maybe make another one with white sugar seeing it has the tendency to brown when under heavy heat! I will let you know how they turn out Sheena! Thanks!

    When you talk/write about the pie above, you say put all ingredients in blender and then say you like the crunchy ness of the brown sugar on top, but there's no brown sugar in the recipe. In the recipe instructions you say to blend all ingredients then say to sprinkle nut meg on top of pie and bake. I'm a little confused. Do you blend the nutmeg with all ingredients and then top with brown sugar or top it with the nutmeg and leave out brown sugar? Would like to know as I would love to make this. Thanks

    OK I just read more of the coments above and you replied to others who mentioned the brown sugar and said it was BROWNED SUGAR but sugar is not in the recipe. So do I add the nutmeg to the mix and top with sugar or do I top it with the nutmeg and sugar? Thanks

    This is amazing! For those who've scrolled all the way down here wondering whether or not this recipe is worth a go, I think if you follow the excellent instructions above to the letter you cannot possibly go wrong. The bit of information I was looking for was whether it could be tucked into straight away or if it needed to be left to cool. I thought the best way to find out would be to experiment so I just took it out of the oven, cut into it, admiring its perfect wobbly custard form, its crunchy browned sugar surface (exactly as described!) and its perfect little "crust" at the bottom and it was an absolute delight. I think it will also be magnificent chilled but that requires some to be left long enough to make it into the fridge. Doubtful! Thank you so much for such an awesome and easy to follow recipe. (As a side note, you must spend so much time with your eyes almost rolled into the back of your head with some of these questions and comments! You've been so patient!!! Amazing!!!)

    How do ypu know the custard's cooked? Is it like a cake? No 'crumbs' (aka toothpick comes out same) and its done? Or should it be a little jiggly in the middle? Love to make it soon!

      Hi Jessica! You can do the toothpick method! If baked according to the directions above, it should be cooked perfectly. I've baked this recipe in many different ovens and it turns out the same every time! Thanks and enjoy!

    Oh my goodness!! Magic crust indeed!! Just made this pie and it was fabulous. Haven't had custard in years, actually never made custard. My mom used to for her father when he was ill, that is what he always wanted. Anyway, this turned out perfectly!! I have been sending proud pictures to my mom, they were so pretty!! Thank you for the delicious recipe! Noelle

    I've tried other Magic Pie recipes and this one is the absolute best! No, it's not the dessert you make for company, it's the kind you make for yourself when you're desperate, er...I mean, for your family to enjoy after slaving over dinner. I'm going to experiment with a bit of orange zest, and maybe try some combos with cardamom.

    I made this recipe today. I love it. I followed the directions, the only thing I did that the directions didn't call for was to mix up my dry ingredients before adding them to the blender. It came out perfect. I have the crust and the wonderful custard and the golden brown top. Thank you for such and easy, quick and yummy dessert.

    Is there a pie crust with this?

    I'm trying to figure out the brown sugar. The comments in the cake say that the brown sugar top is a favorite but the recipe doesn't call for it and there are no notes or comments for brown sugar.

    New favorite easy recipe! Such a hit for thanksgiving, thank you!
    I used truvia baking blend (1/2 As much as the sugar that’s called for, as that’s the suggested ratio) and I used white whole-wheat flour, so it was a little bit mote diabetic-friendly, and it was still amazing!

    Recipe is not right at all! Ingredients: Half a cup "all purpose flour?"
    OR
    "custard powder?"
    Waisted a lot of ingredients and my time!!!

    I'm sorry the recipe didn't turn out for you. We've made it at least a dozen times with no issues. All purpose flour is the correct ingredient as listed.

    I love this pie!! As a child I remember my mom used to make sweet eggs sometimes for breakfast and this is so very reminiscent of that time. The flour crust on the bottom and the carmelized sugary top of the pie is just yummy! Thank you so much for this recipe♥️ Thumbs Up!!

    Its been 45 min and its still pretty watery in the middle. How long would you bake it for if it goes past the 45 min? Otherwise, it looks and smells great!
