Creating Easy Egg Custard can be a fun and simple process when you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Preheat your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Baking Dish: Grease a large baking dish (or individual ramekins) with butter to prevent sticking.
3. Mix Eggs: In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs together until they are well-beaten.
4. Combine Ingredients: Gradually whisk in the sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until fully incorporated.
5. Add Milk: Slowly pour in the whole milk, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
6. Add Nutmeg: If desired, sprinkle in ground nutmeg for added flavor and mix well.
7. Pour into Dish: Carefully pour the custard mixture into the prepared baking dish or ramekins, filling them about three-quarters full.
8. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the custard is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
9. Cool Custard: Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
10. Chill (Optional): For a colder treat, place the custard in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.

By following these steps, you’ll create a remarkably easy and delicious Easy Egg Custard that will definitely satisfy your sweet cravings.
