Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160°C (325°F) and place a roasting pan filled with about 2cm of hot water in the oven. This will be used later for baking the creme caramel.
- In a saucepan, combine 150g granulated sugar and 6 tablespoons of water. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves.
- Stop stirring and let the mixture cook until it turns golden brown, which should take about 5-6 minutes. Be careful not to burn the caramel.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and quickly pour the caramel into a 9 inch baking dish, swirling it around the sides. Set the dish aside to cool.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together 6 eggs, 800ml whole milk, 2 tsp vanilla extract, and 200g granulated sugar until well combined.
- Pour the mixture through a sieve into a jug, then pour it into the prepared baking dish.
- Carefully place the baking dish into the roasting pan filled with hot water in the oven.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the custard is set around the edges but still slightly wobbly in the center.
- Remove the baking dish from the roasting pan and let it cool.
- Once cooled, cover the baking dish with cling film and chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- To serve, run a knife around the edge of the baking dish and invert it onto a large serving plate. The caramel should be on top and drizzle down the sides of the custard.
- Slice the creme caramel into portions and serve. Enjoy!
