OLD FASHIONED EGG CUSTARD RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees
• Heat the milk in a large saucepan until bubbles form around the edges. Toss the eggs, sugar, and salt in a blender and give it a few pulses until nice and smooth.
• Once the milk is hot, remove it from the stove top. Slowly add the milk into the eggs while whisking vigorously.
• Once the milk and eggs are combined, stir in the vanilla.
• Pour the custard mixture into a 9×13 casserole dish {or small custard cups} and sprinkle with freshly grated nutmeg. Place the casserole dish in a large roasting pan and fill the pan with enough water to reach about 1 inch from the top of the casserole dish.
• Bake for about 45 minutes or until the custard has just set. Be careful not to over cook.

SLOW COOKER EGG CUSTARD

Steps:

• Grease slow cooker with the butter (leave excess in crock); set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl combine all ingredients except cinnamon and whipped cream.
• Mix well and pour into crock pot.
• Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours. At the end of the cooking time gently touch the top of the custard to make sure it is set.
• If not set cook 1/2 hour more, if set leave the crock uncovered and let the custard sit for 1 hour at room temperature.
• Slice and garnish with a sprinkle of the cinnamon or nutmeg and whipped cream if you like.
