If my Grandmother didn't bake a bread n butter pudding on Sundays it was a baked Custard
This indulgent baked custard is made with eggs, cream, a touch of maple syrup. Sprinkle it with nutmeg and bake in the oven, and you'll have a lower sugar dessert reminiscent of the simple flavours of yester year.
