Notes
Prevent browning on crust:
In order to prevent your crust from browning too much in the hour-long baking process, about 30 minutes into baking, place a loose piece of foil over the crust and resume baking
Make Ahead and Storage:
How long ahead can I make peanut butter pie with custard?
A custard pie can be made about 4 days in advance. Store covered in the fridge until ready to eat.
Storage: Cover the pie and store it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days
Reheating: Reheat the individual sliced on a microwave-proof dish, or reheat in the oven by placing the pie on a cookie sheet and covering loosely with non-stick foil. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until heated through
Freezing: I do not recommend freezing this pie as the custard tends to pull apart in the freezer making an impact on the texture

How do you know when a Custard Pie is done baking?
- A custard pie should be firm around the edges but still jiggly in the middle
- This middle should not be runny, but when you move the pie back and forth it will jiggle like Jell-O
- A knife inserted into the middle might have custard bits on it but will not have a runny filling
