Beat eggs until frothy. Add sugar, butter, and flour and beat until smooth.

Tips

If the edges of your pie crust are browning too quickly, cover the pie with foil for the remainder of the baking time.

You can tell your pie is done when the top is lightly browned and the center of the pie still jiggles slightly. It will continue to set as it cools.

You may stick a toothpick in the center, if it comes out mostly clean your pie is ready.
