CREAMY VANILLA SCHULZ MILK CUSTARD

Warm up this winter with a delicious, silky, creamy custard to pour over your favourite desserts. Our Creamery and Cafe pastry chef, Hila Perry, has shared her recipe for Vanilla Custard using our very own Schulz Organic Full Cream Milk. Custard is the perfect accompaniment to golden syrup dumplings, encased in flaky buttery pastry, but especially poured atop fruit crumbles! The best part? It can be made in minutes!

What you’ll need:

500 ml Schulz Full Cream Milk 

1 spoon vanilla extract or 1/2 a vanilla bean scraped into the milk

50g caster sugar

80g egg yolks (5 egg yolks)

Method:

  1. Bring milk and vanilla to the boil, take off the heat. 

  2. In a bowl, mix egg yolks and sugar. 

  3. Poor 1/3 of the warm milk over the yolks mixture and mix. 

  4. Poor back to the pot and put back on low heat. Mix constantly until reaching 82° if using a thermometer or until desired thickness.  

  5. Pour into a bowl straight away to cool down, or serve fresh.
