Easy Egg Custard


Here’s a recipe for Easy Egg Custard, a classic dessert that's creamy, smooth, and absolutely delightful. 🍮✨

Ingredients:
2 cups whole milk
3 large eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional, for topping)
Pinch of salt
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place 6 small ramekins in a deep baking dish. Ensure the dish is deep enough to create a water bath later.
2. Warm the Milk:
In a medium saucepan, gently heat the milk over medium heat until warm but not boiling. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Prepare the Custard Mixture:
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
Gradually add the warm milk to the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
4. Pour into Ramekins:
Strain the custard mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps for a silky texture.
Divide the custard evenly among the ramekins.
5. Create a Water Bath:
Carefully pour hot water into the baking dish, around the ramekins, until the water reaches about halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
6. Bake:
