Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Press pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish.

  2. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir cornstarch, nutmeg, garlic salt, and black pepper into melted butter until cornstarch dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour milk into cornstarch mixture, cook and stir until thickened and bubbling, about 5 minutes.

  3. Stir Swiss cheese into milk mixture, cook and stir until melted and cheese sauce is smooth, about 5 minutes.

  4. Whisk 1 to 2 tablespoons cheese sauce and eggs together in a bowl until eggs are warmed, pour into cheese sauce and whisk until incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir ham into cheese sauce, pour into pie shell.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until pie is set in the middle, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving, 5 to 10 minutes.
