Notes

To ensure a creamy texture, make sure the eggs and cream are at room temperature before mixing. If you prefer a spicier pie, you can adjust the spices to taste. For a decorative touch, consider using a pastry cutter to create designs in the crust before baking. Always check for doneness by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out mostly clean.
