Do you bake a custard pie?

Answer 1

You need to follow the directions of the pie. Most of the custard pies I a make do require baking. They are called baked custard pies. Like pumpkin or lemon for instance, but some do not require it. The question is not sufficiently posed.

Answer 2

A custard pie is any type of uncooked custard mixture added to an uncooked or partially cooked crust and baked together.Custard pie commonly refers to a plain mixture of milk, eggs, sugar, salt, vanilla extract and sometimes nutmeg combined with a pie crust. It is distinctly different from a cream pie, which contains cooked custard poured into a cooled, precooked crust. Some common custard pies include cheesecake, pumpkin pie, lemon meringue, and pecan pie. True custard is defined as a liquid thickened with eggs. Due to the often large number of whole eggs in custard pie it is a very rich pie.
