⭐ Ingredients

4 cups (1 liter) full-fat milk
4 large eggs
½ cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
Optional: pinch of salt or cinnamon

🔥 Instructions

Preheat oven to 180°C / 350°F.
In a bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until smooth (don’t overbeat).
Warm the milk slightly (not hot), then slowly whisk it into the egg mixture.
Add vanilla and a pinch of salt.
Pour into a buttered baking dish.
Place the dish in a larger tray filled with hot water (water bath).
Bake 45–55 minutes until golden on top and just set in the center.
Cool slightly before slicing — it firms up beautifully.

💡 Tips for That Perfect Texture

Use full-fat milk for the creamy interior
Don’t overbake — center should still jiggle slightly
Chill for cleaner slices or serve warm for pudding texture

🍯 Optional Variations

Add 1 tbsp honey for richness
Sprinkle nutmeg or cinnamon on top
Replace some milk with cream for extra indulgence
