Shellfish Free White Peach Vanilla Custard Cups

There is something quietly luxurious about a silky, set custard that wobbles just right when you nudge the ramekin — and this version delivers that satisfaction with very little fuss. Whole milk and a real vanilla bean steep together until the kitchen smells like a French patisserie, and the resulting custard is rich, fragrant, and impossibly smooth. The water bath method keeps the heat gentle and even, which is what gives each cup that tender, spoonable texture rather than a rubbery, overcooked result. Topping it all off with sugared white peach slices adds a floral, juicy brightness that cuts through the richness in the best possible way. Every single ingredient here is naturally free from shellfish and seafood of any kind, so there is nothing to scrutinize on a label or swap out — just straightforward, beautiful cooking. It is the kind of dessert that looks far more impressive than the effort involved, making it perfect for a dinner party finish or a slow weekend treat.
