Vanilla Custard Sauce

Today I'm going to share a Vanilla Custard Sauce Recipe, which is the perfect pairing with apple crumble. I've always enjoyed custard sauce ever since I was little. So, let's make some beautiful rich creamy vanilla custard sauce.

Ingredients:
450 ml creamy milk (1 3/4cups)
1 vanilla pod
4 medium egg yolks (room temp)
2,5 tbsp caster sugar
1 - 2 tsp corn flour

Process:

• Pour the milk into a medium size pan, and split the vanilla pod down the middle, scrape a few of the seed into the milk and place the pod into the milk
• Heat the milk up until it's boiled, then take it off the heat. Cover it with the lid, let it infuse with the vanilla for about 15 mins.
• While the ingredients are infusing, beat together the egg yolk and custard sugar until light and smooth. Add cornflour and stir until smooth.
• Remove vanilla pod from the milk and pour the warm milk onto the yolk in the steady stream, stirring constantly.
• Pour the mixture back into the pan and stir constantly on a medium heat.
• Don't let the mixture comes to the boil as it will scramble the eggs.
• The custard is ready, when it's thick enough to coat the back of the spoon

Note: 

Custard sauce is perfect for pouring over apple pie, apple crumble or puddings. Or as I like to do, I pour it into a small bowl or ramekin, sprinkle it with a little bit cinnamon and nutmeg and allow it to chill and it's beautiful as a cold custard dessert.
