Custard is very easy to make. Sometimes I will add fruit, but you have to make sure there is not a lot of juice in the fruit. Custard is good while still warm or when chilled in the refrigerator.
Yield: 5 Servings
Short Korean Lesson
- GoRae (고래) = Whale
- SangEo (상어) = Shark
Main Ingredients
- 3 Eggs
- 2 Cups Milk
- ¼ Cup Sugar
- ½ tsp Vanilla Extract
- ½ Tbsp Brown Sugar per Each Custard Cup
- ⅛ tsp Salt
- Some Cinnamon
Directions
Preheat oven to 325°F. Mix ¼ cup of sugar and ⅛ tsp of salt into 3 beaten eggs.
Stir in 2 cups of milk and ½ tsp of vanilla.
Put ½ Tbsp brown sugar into each custard cup. Place the custard cups in a 9×11 inch cake pan.
Fill the cups with the egg mixture and sprinkle cinnamon on top.
Fill the cake pan with boiling water: half way to the top of the custard cups. Bake for 45 minutes.
Insert a knife into the center of the custard to see if done. If it is done, the knife will come out clean.
When they are done, carefully remove the cups from pan.
You can eat the custard while it is warm or chill it before eating.

It was delicious custard mom ~~~ 😉

Joanna says
Hey Aeri is it possible to make this custard with soymilk? PS- I LOVE YOU and your son is a DOLL!!
Diane says
Hi Joanna, I’m not sure if soymilk would work or not. Sorry
Emma says
I’m sure you can add sugar to the top and torch it, to make a nice sweet crunchy topping. Just like creme brulee!
Kim says
Whenever I try this, the custard comes out curdley and watery 🙁 What am I doing wrong?
Diane says
Hi Kim, Sorry to hear you had trouble with your custard. Be sure to use fresh milk. Also, make sure the custard cups are baked in a pan of hot water. I’m not sure how watery your custard was. Maybe you had too much water in the pan. Mine will have a little water on them but not much. And make sure the knife comes out clean (no custard on knife) but, don’t over bake. You might have over baked it and had too much water in the pan. Hope this helps.
Chimeg says
Can I make it using microwave?

Dear Aeris,
I think you can add powdered cashew and granulated sugar as topping. I just use it on the greentea mousse. The taste is good. 😛
