How to Make Baked Custard Cups

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and frothy.
  3. In a separate saucepan, heat 2 cups whole milk until just simmering (do not boil).
  4. Slowly pour the hot milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent scrambling.
  5. Divide the custard mixture evenly among four (6-ounce) ramekins or custard cups.
  6. Place the ramekins in a 9x9 inch baking pan.
  7. Carefully pour enough boiling water into the baking pan to come about 1 inch up the sides of the ramekins (this creates a water bath for even cooking).
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Carefully remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Garnish with fresh berries or fruit before serving.
