CARAMEL
100 g fine sugar

FILLING
3 eggs
1 vanilla pod
2 tablespoons instant coffee, depending on how intense you want the flavor
60 ml milk
390 ml cream

23 cm diameter tart pan with a rim of 4 to 5 cm

Preparation method

How do you make this?

Preheat the oven to 200 °C.

Place your tart pan in the oven to warm up. After 5 minutes, pour in 70 grams of sugar. Swirl it around so it is evenly distributed, do not stir. Place it back in the oven. A caramel will form. Keep a close eye on it so the sugar doesn't burn. Occasionally swirl the pan. Caution: hot, hot, hot! (You can also melt the sugar in a pan over heat if you prefer.) Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

Lower the oven temperature to 160 °C.

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the seeds from the vanilla pod, the instant coffee, and the remaining sugar. The goal is not to whip it too much; there should be as little foam as possible. Stir the milk and cream into the eggs.

Now place your pan with the set caramel into a larger pan, so you can cook it au bain-marie. Pour the egg-cream mixture into the pan, pour warm water between the two pans, and place in the oven.

Let it cook for 1 hour. The texture should still be a bit jiggly, but not liquid anymore.

Refrigerate overnight.

Loosen the edges, place a plate on top, and confidently flip it over. Tap the pan a bit if it doesn't come out immediately.

Tips

You can also prepare it without coffee. Then put a little more vanilla in it.
