Preparation Steps

• Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
• Place the pie crust on a baking sheet. If using a raw crust, you may want to blind bake it for 10-15 minutes according to package directions to prevent a soggy bottom.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg (if using) until well combined.
