Ingredients for custard
This custard recipe uses just five ingredients that you should already have in your fridge and store cupboard.
- Sugar - I use caster sugar for my custard, but as you will be milling it in the beginning you can use any white or raw sugar.
- Cornflour (corn starch)
- Milk - whole milk is best
- Egg yolks - some custard recipes use the whole egg. however you will get a richer, creamier and more yellow custard by just using the yolks. Looking for a recipe to use up the egg whites? Try my Thermomix meringues or this Eton Mess recipe.
- Vanilla extract
How to make Custard in the Thermomix
Seriously, you won't believe how easy it is to make custard in the Thermomix! And quick... it takes just around ten minutes total.
First add the sugar and cornflour to the bowl and mill for 10 seconds.
Then add all the other ingredients and use the THICKEN function (TM6 only). It takes around 10 minutes and rich creamy is yours to enjoy.
Don't have a TM6? Don't worry! You can make this Thermomix custard manually too. Just cook it for 7 minutes / 90 degrees / speed 4 and the results will be the same.
Serve immediately if you are pouring it over dessert or store it in the fridge for eating on its own later. It will be smooth and silky when hot but will set more solid once refrigerated.
How to serve custard
Custard is super delicious poured over your favourite dessert (such as apple crumble or apple pie). My kids also like it with slices of banana stirred through it.
BUT it is also amazing just on its own. My kids love it... I divide it up into small pots and store it in the fridge and then just they dig in with a spoon for dessert or a snack.
