Raspberry Cup Custard With Graham Cracker Crust Recipes

BAKED RASPBERRY CUSTARD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a deep-dish pie pan.
• Spread raspberries into the prepared pan and top with 1/4 cup white sugar.
• Blend milk, eggs, 1 1/4 cups white sugar, flour, unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and salt together in a blender until smooth and creamy; slowly pour over raspberries. Sprinkle coarse sugar over the floating raspberries.
• Bake in the preheated oven until custard is raised in the middle and top is lightly browned, 45 to 50 minutes.

RASPBERRY CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pulse graham-cracker crumbs, butter, granulated sugar, and salt in a food processor until combined. Press mixture into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Freeze 10 minutes. Bake until slightly darker, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Filling: Whisk yolks in a heatproof bowl. Whisk together granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan; whisk in milk and vanilla seeds and pod. Bring to a boil, whisking; cook, still whisking, 2 minutes more.
• Pour milk mixture into yolks in a slow, steady stream, whisking until combined. Return mixture to saucepan; return to a boil, whisking. Remove from heat. Pass through a sieve into another bowl. Whisk in butter until melted. Let custard cool, whisking occasionally, about 10 minutes. Fold in 1 1/2 cups berries.
• Pour custard into cooled crust. Press plastic wrap directly onto surface. Refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours and up to 1 day.
• Whip cream with confectioners' sugar until soft peaks form, then spoon over filling. Top and serve with remaining berries.

GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Process the graham crackers and sugar in a food processor to a fine crumb. Add the melted butter and pulse until moist. Press the crumbs into a 9-inch pie plate and bake until firm, 12 to 15 minutes. Let the crust cool completely on a wire rack before filling.

FRESH RASPBERRY PIE

• In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and water until smooth. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in gelatin until dissolved. Cool for 15 minutes., Place raspberries in the crust; slowly pour gelatin mixture over berries. Chill until set, about 3 hours.

RASPBERRY CUP CUSTARD WITH GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees and set a rack in the middle.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup of the sugar, and the melted butter. Divide the mixture among 4 (1-cup) custard cups and press down to form a crust on the bottom.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream and 1 tablespoon of the remaining tablespoon of sugar. Scald and remove from the heat. In a large mixing bowl, combine the yolks, the remaining tablespoon of sugar, vanilla, and rum. Whisk lightly, just to combine.
• Whisking lightly, gradually drizzle the scalded cream mixture into the egg mixture to warm it without scrambling the eggs. Strain the mixture and pour into custard cups. Place 6 raspberries in each cup, dunking them so they are coated with custard.
• Arrange the cups in a roasting pan and pour in hot water halfway up the sides. Cover the pan with foil and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the custards are set. Cool in the pan, then refrigerate, covered, up to 2 days ahead.
• If you like, sprinkle a light layer of sugar over each custard and place under a preheated broiler for about 2 to 4 minutes, watching that they don't burn. Serve immediately after glazing.
