👨🍳 Fremgangsmåte

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).

Make the caramel: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of sugar and 1/4 cup of water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Continue to cook without stirring until it turns a deep amber color. Carefully pour the hot caramel into a baking dish (about 8x8 inch or similar size), tilting to coat the bottom and sides. Be cautious as the caramel is extremely hot.

Prepare the custard: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, 3/4 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan. Carefully pour hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish (this is a water bath or bain-marie).
💡 Profesjonelle tips: The water bath ensures even cooking and a creamy texture. - 7
Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the custard is set and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. The top should be lightly golden.

Remove the baking dish from the water bath and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
