Ingredients

• 250ml skimmed milk
• 3 eggs (yolks only)
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch or flour
• 125g condensed milk
• 90ml cold water
• 1 piece of lemon peel (finely grated)
• 60g butter

Directions

1. Start by preheating the oven to 175°C (or a low setting).

2. In a medium pot, combine the skimmed milk, egg yolks, cornstarch or flour and condensed milk. Whisk these ingredients until smooth and creamy. The resulting mixture should be airy and light.

3. Add the cold water and lemon peel to the mixture and stir until combined.

4. Grease a medium-sized baking dish with the butter.

5. Pour the mixture into the greased dish and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour.

6. After cooking, the top of the crème caramel should be slightly golden in colour and a toothpick or knife inserted into the centre should come out almost clean.

7. Allow the crème caramel to cool before serving.

Recommended Sides

This toddler-friendly crème caramel pairs nicely with some fresh fruits such as apples, bananas, and berries. Some slices of whole-grain toast can also be served alongside, with butter if desired.

For added fun and a family-friendly twist on a classic French dish, insert some jokes in the steps. For instance, in step 3, add a humorous comment such as “Take a deep breath, it’s almost done. As the crème caramel bakes, the smell will make the kitchen roar!”
