For an extra nutty flavor, try adding 1/4 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts to the filling. Make sure to let the sugar mixture cool slightly before adding the eggs, otherwise they might scramble. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil. This pie is best served at room temperature or slightly chilled.
