Ingredients

• 6 large Eggs
• 60 grams Vanilla Protein Powder
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 750 milliliters Unsweetened Almond Milk
• 60 milliliters Honey
• 40 grams Cornflour
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 15 grams Butter
• 4 sheets Phyllo Pastry Sheets
• 1 as needed Cooking Spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla protein powder, and vanilla extract until well blended and smooth.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the almond milk and honey. Stir frequently until the mixture comes to a gentle simmer.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the cornflour with a little warm milk to create a slurry. Gradually whisk this slurry into the hot milk mixture until the custard thickens slightly. Add the salt and remove from heat.

Step 5

Slowly whisk the milk mixture into the egg mixture, ensuring a smooth consistency. Strain the custard through a fine mesh sieve to remove any potential lumps.

Step 6

Melt the butter and lightly brush a phyllo pastry sheet. Lay it across the greased baking dish, allowing some overhang. Repeat with remaining sheets, stacking them atop each other.

Step 7

Pour the strained custard mixture over the phyllo-lined dish. Fold any overhanging pastry over, spraying with cooking spray or gently brushing with melted butter between layers.

Step 8

Bake the custard in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden and custard is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow it to cool in the dish before transferring to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours, allowing the custard to firm up further.

Step 10

Once chilled, slice into squares and serve. Enjoy your high-protein baked custard slice!
