Oeuf au Lait/French Baked Pudding

Though i know many beautiful French desserts prepared with eggs, my today's post is my all time favourite. I had an immense chance to taste this super delicious pudding during one of our summer trip to Charente region of France.Though this Baked pudding ressembles as much as like crustless French Flan, somehow i found that the taste of this baked pudding is quite different from the Flan. No flour is needed obviously eggs plays an important role in this pudding. Just with four ingredients, you can simply whisk this dessert with less efforts. Even a kid can prepare this delicious pudding with the help of an adult as this pudding calls for baking. Once finished baking, this baked beauties are arranged in fridge before serving, this pudding when served chilled makes an excellent dessert after a meal.

When i went through many French blogs to check about this oeuf au lait, i found that this dessert is one of most favourite of many during their childhood. Whoever loves Flan which definitely go crazy if they enjoy this fantabulous dessert. Apart from the chilling part, this pudding asks just few minutes whisking and baking. Though many versions of Oeuf au lait do exists, i sticked with the usual one with vanilla flavor.This beautiful pudding is going to be a part of this month's blogging marathon as am running with Journey through the cuisine with French cuisine as theme in Alphabetic order and today's letter is 'O'.
