Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 ml Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 4 large Eggs
- 40 grams Cornflour
- 100 grams Erythritol
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 sheets Low carb puff pastry sheets
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F). Line a 9x13 inch baking dish with baking paper.
Roll out the low carb puff pastry sheets and cut them to fit the base of the baking dish. Place one sheet in the bottom of the dish.
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsweetened almond milk and vanilla extract. Heat over medium heat until it starts to simmer, then remove from heat.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cornflour, and erythritol until well combined and smooth.
Gradually add the hot almond milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to prevent curdling.
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens to a custard consistency. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
Once thickened, pour the custard over the pastry in the baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Place the second sheet of low carb puff pastry on top of the custard, pressing it down gently.
Sprinkle the ground cinnamon evenly over the top pastry sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the top is golden and the custard is set.
Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the dish. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before slicing.
Carefully slice into squares and serve. Enjoy your sugar-free baked custard slices!
