"There is one major difference though as far as the English and the Portuguese versions are concerned: the English custard tart is made of crust pastry and topped with nutmeg, while the Portuguese pasteis de nata is made with puff pastry and topped with cinnamon."

Had a go at egg custard tarts today. We had half of one with lunch.

Please post the recipe.

I followed this kind of. I used ready rolled pastry (just because it makes it easier). I made double the amount of custard and it made too much (doesn't say on there what size pie dish to use).

I also seperated a couple of the eggs to make maringues with the whites. Also used less sugar and milk.
If you look at the comments they say to adjust the cooking time, and also the pastry on there doesn't work right.. so maybe use a pastry recipe that you know works well.

These are done now. I'm not baking anything sweet for a while now. The egg custard and these should last the kids a few days.

Meringue just rough and ready ones not too pretty. But all tastes the same.
