I made a Baked Custard for the Gilmore Park Church potluck. I got this from one of the recipes I had been collecting over the past few years. Most of the recipes in my collection had never been used before. I just enjoyed collecting them. They are so handy especially when I want to look for new stuff to try with the existing ingredients I have at hand.

I like this recipe because of the simplicity of the name. “Bake” is good because it is convenient and the least messy to make. “Custard” in any form is good and the very name itself is exactly what I wanted … something sweet.

This Baked Custard is flavoured with ginger and vanilla. It is a very simple and quick dessert. Preparation time is only a few minutes.

This recipe requires only 6 ingredients.

• 1 tin sweetened condensed milk
• 3/4 cup evaporated milk
• 3 eggs
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 tablespoon grated ginger

Instructions

To make the custard, first preheat the oven to 350F. Beat the eggs in a medium bowl and combine with the rest of the ingredients and mix well.

Pour the mixture in a round glass dish and bake until golden brown on top, about 30 minutes.

Cut into slices and serve.

You may substitute the fresh grated ginger with 1 teaspoon of ground ginger if you do not fresh ginger on hand. If you have the ingredients right now in your pantry, make it now … you will be enjoying this with your family in less than 1 hour max.
