Everyone will love this traditional baked custard which is so easy to make and delicious to eat.
- Preheat the oven to 170°C.
- Beat the whole eggs, egg yolk and vanilla extract together lightly (you don't want them to become too frothy).
- 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.
- 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.
- Serve hot, warm or chilled with poached fruits, a dollop of jam or just on its own.
