Baked egg custard

Cooking Eggs Baked egg custard

Everyone will love this traditional baked custard which is so easy to make and delicious to eat.

  1. Preheat the oven to 170°C.
  2. Beat the whole eggs, egg yolk and vanilla extract together lightly (you don't want them to become too frothy).
  3. Place the cream in a pan with the sugar, stirring to dissolve. Heat to just below boiling point then pour onto the eggs and stir to combine. Strain through a sieve into a 1-litre (4-cup) capacity baking dish.
  4. Stand in a roasting pan half-filled with hot water. Sprinkle the top with nutmeg. Bake for about 30-35 minutes: it should still wobble slightly.
  5. Serve hot, warm or chilled with poached fruits, a dollop of jam or just on its own.
