How to Make Low Carb Custard

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, water, flavor extract, and artificial sweetener until well combined.
  3. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve for a smoother custard (optional).
  4. Divide the custard evenly among 8 (6-ounce) ramekins.
  5. Sprinkle each ramekin with cinnamon or nutmeg.
  6. Place the ramekins in a larger baking dish. Carefully pour enough cool water into the baking dish to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is just set and no longer jiggles.
  8. Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving. For best results, chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
