Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Mix and heat milk, sugar and salt. Stir hot milk slowly into lightly beaten eggs. Add vanilla.
  3. Pour mixture into custard cups or 1 ½-quart baking dish. Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon, nutmeg or both.
  4. Bake in a pan of hot water until custard is set, 30-45 minutes. When the point of a thin knife comes out clean, remove at once from hot water to keep from overcooking.
