Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 whole large eggs
2 large egg yolks
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup dark amber or Grade B maple syrup
2 tablespoons granulated maple sugar (see cooks' note, below)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
Special Equipment
a 13- by 9-inch baking pan; 6 (6-oz) custard cups or ramekins

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Whisk together all ingredients in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved, then pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a 1-quart glass measure. Divide custard evenly among cups, then transfer cups to baking pan. Bake in a hot water bath , pan covered loosely with foil, until custards are just set and a knife inserted in center of one comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Carefully transfer cups to a rack and cool to warm, about 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your custard cups.
  • Make sure your oven is preheated before you bake the custard cups. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs. Overbeating will make the custard cups tough.
  • Bake the custard cups until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and rubbery.
  • Let the custard cups cool completely before serving. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

Maple custard cups are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With their creamy, custard filling and sweet, maple flavor, these custard cups are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
