Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Heavy cream
• 0.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk
• 4 Large eggs
• 2 Egg yolks
• 0.75 cups Granulated erythritol
• 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and almond milk. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until very hot but not boiling. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, and granulated erythritol until smooth and the sweetener is dissolved.

Step 4

Gradually add the warm cream mixture to the egg mixture, whisking continuously to prevent the eggs from cooking. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt.

Step 5

Strain the custard mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large measuring cup or bowl with a pour spout to remove any cooked egg bits.

Step 6

Place six ramekins or custard cups in a large baking dish. Pour the custard mixture evenly into the ramekins.

Step 7

Sprinkle a pinch of ground nutmeg over the top of each custard.

Step 8

Carefully pour hot water into the baking dish around the ramekins until the water reaches about halfway up the sides of the ramekins.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until the custards are set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.

Step 10

Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully chilled before serving.
