Description

This delightful baked custard offers a sophisticated twist on classic fruit desserts, combining the natural sweetness of Bing cherries with the rich creaminess of evaporated skim milk. A splash of cherry brandy adds a sophisticated depth, while whole-wheat flour and fructose provide a wholesome balance. The texture is luxuriously smooth with a gentle set, perfect for showcasing the vibrant fruit. Ideal for intimate dinner parties or a special weekend treat, these individual servings are easy to prepare and look stunning on any table. The subtle vanilla notes tie the flavors together, creating a comforting yet refined experience that satisfies sweet tooth cravings without being overly heavy.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325&# 194;°F (163ðC).
  2. Spray four 4-ounce ramekins or custard cups with vegetable cooking spray.
  3. Divide the Bing cherries evenly among the prepared ramekins.
  4. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cherry brandy over the cherries in each ramekin.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine the whole-wheat flour and fructose.
  6. Stir in the evaporated skim milk, beaten egg, and vanilla until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  7. Divide the batter evenly over the cherries in each ramekin.
  8. Place the ramekins in a larger baking dish and fill the dish with hot tap water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
  9. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.
  10. Remove from the water bath and let cool slightly before serving warm.
