Ingredients

2 whole large eggs
2 large egg yolks
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup dark amber or Grade B maple syrup
2 tablespoons granulated maple sugar (see cooks' note, below)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
Whisk together all ingredients in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved, then pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a 1-quart glass measure.

Bake in a hot water bath , pan covered loosely with foil, until custards are just set and a knife inserted in center of one comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes.

Tips:

For a richer custard, use heavy cream instead of milk.
Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of nutmeg for extra flavor.
Strain the custard mixture before pouring it into the ramekins to remove any lumps.
Bake the custards in a water bath to prevent them from curdling.
Chill the custards for at least 4 hours before serving.
