Baked Custard

Ingredients

3 eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups milk
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions

In a mixing bowl combine eggs, sugar, vanilla and milk; mix well. Pour into a lightly buttered 1- or 1 1/2-quart baking dish or souffle which will fit in the slow cooker/Crock Pot, and sprinkle with the nutmeg. Place a rack or ring of aluminum foil in the slow cooker/Crock Pot, then add 1 1/2 to 2 cups of hot water to the pot. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place on the rack in the slow cooker/Crock Pot. Cover and cook on high for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until set.
