Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare the pie crust in a dish.
Blind bake the crust for about 10 minutes until slightly golden.
Whisk eggs and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3–4 minutes, then mix in milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt.
Pour the custard mixture into the pre-baked pie crust.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes until the center is set but slightly wobbly.
