Oven-Roasted Lemon Egg Custard Bites

Ingredients

- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even cooking.

2. Prepare the Baking Dish:
Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with a small amount of vegetable oil or line it with parchment paper for easy removal after baking.

3. Beat the Eggs:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs until smooth and well combined. Set aside.

4. Mix the Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, combine the vegetable oil, white vinegar, water, and lemon juice. Stir until all liquids are thoroughly blended.

5. Combine Dry Ingredients:
Add the salt and granulated sugar to the egg mixture and whisk until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.

6. Blend All Ingredients:
Gradually incorporate the oil mixture into the eggs by slowly pouring it in while continuously whisking. This will help prevent curdling and ensure a smooth custard.

7. Strain the Mixture:
For an ultra-smooth texture, pour the entire mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into your prepared baking dish, discarding any solids collected in the sieve.

8. Bake the Custard Bites:
Carefully place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30-35 minutes, or until the custard is set and the edges are lightly golden. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.

9. Cool and Slice:
Allow the custard to cool slightly in the dish, then transfer it to a cooling rack. Once completely cooled, slice into bite-sized squares or bars.

10. Serve:
Serve warm or chilled as a delightful snack. Garnish with a light dusting of powdered sugar or a fresh lemon zest for a burst of color and flavor, if desired.
