Ingredients

For the Custard:

  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 4 cups hot water
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

For Garnish:

  • nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat oven to 325°F.
  2. Prepare the Custard Mixture: Combine condensed milk and hot water in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, beat eggs until light and fluffy. Temper the eggs with a bit of the hot milk mixture, then combine fully. Stir in vanilla and salt.
  3. Fill Ramekins: Pour the custard mixture into ramekins or a baking dish.
  4. Bake the Custard: Create a water bath by placing the ramekins in a pan with hot water. Bake for 1 hour or until set. If using a larger baking dish, bake for 1 hour 40 minutes.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the custard to cool for 1 hour. Sprinkle with nutmeg and serve warm or refrigerate to serve chilled.

Notes

  • Make sure the water for the water bath is hot to help the custard cook evenly.
  • You can adjust the amount of nutmeg according to your taste preference.
