Ingredients

  • Medium Eggs

  • Cup Heavy cream

  • Can Evaporated milk

  • Can Condensed milk

  • Tsp Vanilla extract

  • Cup Sugar

Directions

  • In a bowl add 1 can evaporated milk, 5 eggs, 1 can condensed milk and 1 tsp vanilla extract.
  • Mix together and add the custard to a blender. Pulse it on high a few times until nice a smooth. At this point add 1 cup heavy cream and pulse on high only once.
  • Now strain the custard thru a mesh strainer into another bowl. This process will eliminate any egg bits that didn’t combine in the custard and you will have a smooth custard after baking. Set aside.
  • Heat a skillet on high, to this add 1 cup sugar and caramelize until it turns dark amber color.
  • Now carefully add the caramel to the bottom of a baking pan and swirl around to coat the base evenly.
  • Once the sugar has cooled down and set, slowly pour the custard on top. Tap a few times to ensure there are no air bubbles.
  • Bake the custard at 300 F degree for 40 mins or until the center is set to touch in the center. Remove from the oven and let it cool. Refrigerate for atleast 6 hours or overnight before serving.
  • Enjoy!!
