Combine the first 3 ingredients in a bowl. Put 1/2 of milk in a sauce pan and let it just warm. Add the dry ingredients to the warm milk and mix. Add the remaining milk and cook on medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from burner and add the egg yolks and vanilla and stir well. Pour into precooked pie shell.
