Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, and ground nutmeg. If using cinnamon, add it here as well.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until light and frothy.
Melt the unsalted butter and allow it to cool slightly.
Add the apple cider vinegar, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter to the whisked eggs. Stir until evenly combined.
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, whisking constantly to ensure a smooth filling.
Pour the filling into the unbaked 9-inch pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Carefully place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 40-45 minutes or until the filling is set and slightly golden on top.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool at room temperature before serving.
Slice and serve as is, or with a dollop of whipped cream for a touch of indulgence.
