  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Whisk the eggs and the egg yolk in a bowl until frothy. Add the milk and vanilla; beat well. Slowly stir in the flour, salt, and brown sugar. Pour the mixture into the pie crust.
  3. Whisk together the light whipping cream and the heavy cream in a separate bowl; chill in refrigerator.
