How to Make Baked Custard
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until light and frothy.
- Gradually whisk in the heavy cream and milk until fully combined.
- Strain the custard mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any lumps.
- Pour the custard mixture into individual ramekins or a larger baking dish.
- Place the ramekins in a larger baking pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins (this creates a water bath for even baking).
- Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the custard is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Garnish with fresh berries or a sprinkle of nutmeg before serving.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
