heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Break 6 eggs into a mixing bowl.

Beat the eggs vigorously for about 2-3 minutes until frothy.

Add sugar to the eggs and mix thoroughly until dissolved.

Incorporate mixed essence and freshly ground nutmeg into the egg mixture.

Pour in a full can of evaporated milk and mix well.

Add 3/4 of a can of condensed milk to the mixture and stir.

Pour the custard mixture into a 10-inch baking dish, about 2-3 inches deep.

Top the custard with the remaining condensed milk without mixing it in.

Sprinkle extra nutmeg on top of the custard.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and place the custard in the oven.

After placing the custard in the oven, lower the temperature to 340°F (170°C).

Bake for about 30-40 minutes, checking at the 20-minute mark for doneness.

The custard should have a slight jiggle when removed from the oven, but will set as it cools.

Let the custard cool for about 45 minutes before slicing.
