Old-Fashioned Custard Pie image

This recipe came from the best cook in West Virginia-my mother! I just added a little to her ingredients. I'm a widow, and my grown children live in another state. So mostly I make my custard pie for church and club functions. It's the most different pie of all the ones in my collection.

Used a different recipe before this one and it was more work and not as satisfying! This recipe makes a delicious, light, and airy pie!
