Description

This is one of those mix everything in one bowl and hope for the best kind of bakes, and honestly, it works. You’ll get a soft, creamy tart with that familiar cinnamon top and a slightly rustic texture that feels just right.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350⁰F (180⁰C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or your mini tart casings.
In a mixing bowl, add the 1/2 cup cake flour, 3/4 cup sugar, and a pinch of salt.
Add the 4 eggs and whisk until smooth. It might look a bit thick at this stage, that’s fine.
Slowly pour in the 2 cups of milk while whisking to prevent lumps.
Stir in the 2 tsp vanilla essence.
Add the 1/4 cup of soft butter and mix well until everything is combined.
The batter will be quite thin, almost like a pourable custard.
Pour the mixture into your prepared dish or mini casings. Sprinkle a light layer of ground cinnamon over the top.
Bake for about 30 minutes if using mini casings, or 40 to 45 minutes for a larger tart.
The centre should still have a slight wobble when you gently shake the pan; it’ll firm up as it cools.
Let it cool in the large dish before slicing.
