Ingredients You'll Need
There are only five basic ingredients that you'll need to make this Portuguese Egg Custard. These include eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and puff pastry. The combination of these ingredients creates a rich and smooth custard filling that is perfectly complemented by the flaky and buttery puff pastry crust. Make sure to have all the ingredients ready before you begin as this recipe moves quickly.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Now that you have all your ingredients, let's dive into the step-by-step instructions for making this Portuguese Egg Custard. First, preheat your oven to 375°F and prepare a muffin tin by greasing it with butter or using cupcake liners. Next, roll out the puff pastry and use a cookie cutter to cut out circles that fit into the muffin tin. Place the puff pastry circles into the tin, pressing them gently into the bottom and sides.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined. Pour the custard mixture into the prepared puff pastry crusts, filling them about three-quarters of the way full. Bake the custards for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the custard is set.
Tips for the Perfect Custard
To ensure that your Portuguese Egg Custard turns out perfectly, here are some helpful tips to keep in mind. Make sure to beat the eggs until they are well combined before adding in the milk and sugar. This will create a smooth and consistent custard filling. Additionally, be careful not to overfill the puff pastry crusts, as the custard will rise slightly while baking. Lastly, let the custards cool for a few minutes before removing them from the muffin tin to avoid any breakage.
Now that you have learned how to make this delicious Portuguese dessert, go ahead and give it a try. Whether it's for a special occasion or just a sweet treat for yourself, this Portuguese Egg Custard is sure to become a new favorite in your household. Enjoy!
