custard

[donna88]

I've never made custard before,

Am I right in thinking if I boil milk (using my HEA or syns) vanilla, sweetener and egg yolks it would make custard?

Just served my son some chocolate concrete and custard and I really fancy something with custard myself sometime soon, either just banana's or might get some of those ww desserts

Unfortunately your need cream as well as milk to make custard. I will look out for a low fat version

Hi donna88

Did you give this recipe a go or the other one? Just wondering how it turned out - I made some scan bran cakes today, so this may perk them up!

 

[donna88]

I haven't got round to trying either yet sorry, let me know if you try either of them please

I make custard using my hex of milk, sweetener (better with a bit of sugar if you've got syns) vanilla and egg yolks. It's not as rich as there's no cream but its very pourable and is YUM over bananas!! You just need to syn a bit of cornstarch to stabilise and thicken it.

I have found if you are going to add 1 tbs corn flour at 2 Syns I find it easier to make the custard with Birds custard powder as that is only 2.5 SYNS for 1 tbs use sweetner and a few drops vanilla extract and it always turns out ok
Cheat I know but Hey if you want custard you want it just have the amount you want to suit the Syns you can afford?
