How to Make Old Fashioned Baked Custard
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, cream, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until the sugar dissolves.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and egg yolks until light and frothy.
- Slowly pour the warm milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
- Strain the custard mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any lumps.
- Divide the custard evenly among 6 (6-ounce) ramekins or a single large baking dish.
- Place the ramekins in a larger baking dish and carefully pour enough hot water into the larger dish to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins (this creates a water bath for even baking).
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the custards are 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 a sprinkle of nutmeg or a dollop of whipped cream before serving (optional).
