How to Make Custard Tarts

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 cup whole milk, and a pinch of salt until light and fluffy. Whisk until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is pale yellow.
  3. Arrange store-bought or homemade tart shells on a baking sheet.
  4. Gently spoon the custard filling into each tart shell, filling almost to the top.
  5. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the custard filling is set and lightly golden brown, and the surface shows subtle cracks.
  6. Let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh strawberry slices or raspberries for an extra touch of sweetness.
