Ingredients
For the crust:
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon butter melted
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons cold water
For the filling:
- 4 cups milk
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt for the crust. Add the melted butter, egg, and cold water. Mix until the dough comes together.
- Press the dough into the prepared pie dish, covering the bottom and sides evenly. Set aside.
- In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it starts to simmer. Be careful not to let it boil.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, salt, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
- Slowly pour the hot milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
- Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring continuously, until it thickens to a custard-like consistency. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and pour the filling into the prepared crust.
- Sprinkle ground cinnamon evenly over the top of the tart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is set.
- Allow the Melktert to cool before serving. It can be enjoyed warm or chilled.
- Optionally, you can sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top before serving.
