Ingredients

  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups goat's milk
  • 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon superfine sugar
  • 3 egg yolks, beaten
  • 2 whole eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method

  • Cook's Note: Goat's milk can be found at your local health food store or online.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease four 6-ounce ramekins with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Set a small saucepan over high heat and add the granulated sugar to make caramel.
  • Without stirring, let the sugar melt.
  • As it melts, gently swirl the pan around to melt all the sugar evenly.
  • When it turns dark amber, carefully divide evenly among the ramekins (take care as the caramel is extremely hot).
  • Combine the milk and superfine sugar in a saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer.
  • Add the egg yolks, whole eggs and vanilla to a large mixing bowl.
  • Whisk together until foamy, then add a little of the hot milk to temper the eggs.
  • Stir to combine, then gradually add the rest of the milk (adding it all at once, or too much, will cook and scramble the eggs).
  • Once completely incorporated, stir well and then divide evenly among the four ramekins.
  • Line a turkey roaster with a kitchen towel and carefully place the ramekins on top.
  • Place the roasting dish in the oven, then fill with hot water so it comes 3/4 of the way up the sides of the ramekins.
  • Bake until the custards are set, 35 minutes.
  • Remove the ramekins from the oven and allow to cool.
  • Chill in the fridge before inverting onto a plate to serve.
