Ingredients
Custard Sauce
- 1 cup milk
- 2 egg yolks
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ¼ tsp vanilla bean paste or scrape one vanilla bean or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fruit Salad
- 3 peaches sliced
- 3 plums sliced
- 4 apricots sliced
- 1 cup cherries sliced, pits removed
Instructions
Custard Sauce
- In a small saucepan heat the milk over medium heat until just warmed and starting to steam. Add in the vanilla and stir to combine.
- In a small mixing bowl mix the egg yolks and sugar together until thick.
- Slowly pour a small amount of the warmed milk into the egg mixture, stir with a fork while pouring. Once mixed in, slowly add the remainder of the milk while stirring. (Adding the milk slowly helps the eggs adjust to the heat without cooking.)
- Add the custard sauce back to the small saucepan and heat over medium/low heat while stirring frequently until sauce starts to thicken. Remove from heat and allow the sauce to cool. Pour into a jar and store sealed in the fridge.
Fruit Salad
- Combine all of the fruits into a medium size bowl and stir to mix.
- Serve the fruit in small bowls or cups and drizzle with the custard sauce. Serve immediately and enjoy!
