Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 1/2 cups fat-free milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 6 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 (14-ounce) can fat-free sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°.
  2. Coat 12 (6-ounce) custard cups with cooking spray.
  3. Combine sugar and 1/4 cup water in a small, heavy saucepan; cook over medium-high heat, stirring gently as needed to dissolve sugar evenly. Continue cooking 4 minutes or until golden, stirring constantly. Immediately pour about 1 tablespoon sugar mixture into each of 12 prepared custard cups, tipping quickly until caramelized to coat the bottom of prepared cups.
  4. Combine fat-free milk, vanilla, cinnamon, eggs, and condensed milk in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk until well blended. Pour 1/2 cup milk mixture into each custard cup. Place cups in a jelly-roll pan; add hot water to pan to a depth of 1/4 inch. Bake at 350° for 35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove cups from pan; cool completely on a wire rack. Cover and chill at least 3 hours.
  5. Loosen edges of custards with a knife or rubber spatula. Place a dessert plate, upside down, on top of each custard cup; invert custard onto each of 12 plates. Drizzle any remaining caramelized syrup over custards.
