About Desserts, egg custard, baked, prepared-from-recipe
Baked egg custard is an old-fashioned, gently set dessert made from little more than eggs, milk, sugar and a whisper of vanilla or nutmeg, baked slowly until just firm. Smooth, mild and comforting, it's the homespun cousin of crème caramel and the filling of a custard tart.
Compared with most frozen and bakery desserts it's relatively restrained. At about 104 calories per 100 grams, a serving brings roughly 5 grams of protein and a fair amount of calcium from the milk and eggs, alongside about 4.6 grams of fat and 11 grams of carbohydrate — most of that carbohydrate being the added sugar. The eggs do make it higher in cholesterol, at about 84 milligrams per 100 grams. Sodium is low, near 61 milligrams.
Because it leans on real eggs and milk rather than cream and heavy sweetening, baked custard is one of the more wholesome sweet options — it actually contributes some protein and calcium along with the treat. Made at home you can dial back the sugar, and a light dusting of nutmeg on top is the traditional finishing touch.
