If you are looking for a simple, comfort-food type of dessert to finish off a meal, Baked Custard is a great option.
It is one of the few desserts that Hubby actually likes and has been known to beg for. I usually don’t mind, because it is so easy to make.
So without further ado…
Baked Custard
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Beat eggs until well combined but not foamy. Add in remaining ingredients and mix well. Using an 8×8 glass baking pan, place in four custard cups (or ramekins or small oven-safe bowls). Pour boiling water into pan until it is standing about 1 inch.
Pour batter into custard cups and then carefully place pan in an oven preheated to 325 degrees. Bake about 35-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center of a custard cup comes out clean.
We like to sprinkle cinnamon on top of the custard just before baking. So good and so simple!
Enjoy!
Happy Entertaining!
