How to Make Allison Diana's Orange Custard

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup heavy cream and ¾ cup granulated sugar until well combined.
  2. Add 4 large eggs one at a time, whisking vigorously after each addition to ensure complete incorporation.
  3. Stir in ½ cup freshly squeezed orange juice and the zest of 1 large orange.
  4. Divide the mixture evenly among 4 (6-ounce) ramekins or oven-safe coffee cups.
  5. Place the ramekins in a larger baking dish. Carefully pour enough hot water into the baking dish to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins (this creates a bain-marie for even cooking).
  6. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-30 minutes, or until the custards are set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
  8. Garnish with fresh orange zest or a sprig of mint before serving (optional).
