Smooth, creamy, and delicately sweet, Amish Baked Custard is a timeless dessert that harks back to simpler times—when pantry staples and patience created something truly comforting. This old-fashioned custard requires no fancy tools or exotic ingredients, just sweetened condensed milk, eggs, and a gentle water bath to yield a silky, spoonable treat that’s equally at home on a farmhouse table or a modern holiday spread. Serve it warm with a dusting of nutmeg, or chilled for a cool, elegant finish. Either way, it’s pure comfort in every bite.
