Quick question you say one egg? is that for 8 servings? or are those the proportions for eggs to cream to water? Do you think using more cream and less water it would be thicker?This is a delicious way to eat eggs and cream! I have figured out a fail proof recipe ratio so you can make 1 serve or 10! Delicious breakfast with a few raspberries or strawberries on top.
I haven't tried the microwave, but I'm fairly sure you could make it in the microwave. I use individual pyrex pie dishes, but you could probably make one big dish.
Preheat oven to 350 F/ 180 C ( a little lower if you're lucky enough to have a fan forced oven.
As many multiples of the following as servings you'd like to make (I usually make 8 servings because I have 8 little pie dishes and a baking dish which will hold all 8)
Ingredients:
1 egg
50 ml of cream
50 ml of water
1/4 tsp of vanilla extract
Nutmeg or Cinnamon
Sweetener to your own taste - I use Queen's sugar free maple syrup and don't add any sweetener to the custard. You just put a bit on top of the cold custard, and it tastes just like a creme caramel pudding!
Method:
Beat eggs with vanilla and sweetener until they've gone a pale yellow (about 5 minutes)
Add the cream and water and beat it up some more.
Boil the kettle.
Put your pie dishes into a baking dish and fill the baking dish with boiling water until the water comes about half way up the sides of the pie dishes/ramikins. Pour the custard mixture into the pie dishes/ramikins. Sprinkle some nutmeg or cinnamon on top.
Bake for 25 minutes or until knife comes out clean.
*I used 60g eggs and ordinary pouring cream - your carbs will vary if you use different ingredients.

Oh yes the bit that says as many multiples as you want.. duh.. next time I'll have to follow my own advice and read the post properly ,. sorry @MrsGruffyI read it that the listed ingredients are for one serving. That list of ingredients would never serve 8 would it?
No worries easily done. I had to reread it a couple of times to check I was correct!Oh yes the bit that says as many multiples as you want.. duh.. next time I'll have to follow my own advice and read the post properly ,. sorry @MrsGruffy
