Egg Custard Recipe
- 2 cups milk
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 dash vanilla extract
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg (optional)
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Whisk milk, eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla together in a bowl until completely combined. Pour egg mixture into 6 custard cups; sprinkle tops with nutmeg. Place cups in a baking pan and fill pan with enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the custard cups.
- Bake in the preheated oven until custards are set, about 1 hour. Cool completely.
