Baked Custard
 

Vicki


Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups milk
3 eggs
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
ground nutmeg
Method:
Put milk into 1 quart bowl. Add eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla. Beat
with electric mixer until smooth.
Pour equal amounts into five 6 ounce micro proof custard
cups. Sprinkle with nutmeg. Arrange cups in circle in oven. Cook
on low for 9 - 12 minutes.
Remove each custard cup as it begins to bubble or becomes almost set
in center. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm or
cold.
Yield: 5 servings
Note:
Individual custards cook at different rates. Rather than rotate them
as frequently as needed for a uniform cooking time, remove them from
the oven as they become done. As you remove a custard,
rearrange remaining custards in the circle pattern.
