Ingredients

4 servings

For the caramel

½ cup granulated sugar
2 tbsp water

For the custard

2 cups whole milk
3 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
⅓ cup granulated sugar
¼ tsp salt

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Place four 6-oz ramekins in a deep 9×13-inch baking dish and set aside.
2
Combine the 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 2 tbsp water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook without stirring, swirling the pan occasionally, until the syrup turns a deep amber color, 8–10 minutes. Watch closely — the caramel can darken quickly once it begins to color. Immediately pour the caramel evenly among the four ramekins, tilting each to coat the bottom. Work quickly; the caramel will set within about 30 seconds.
