Gluten-Free Cinnamon Ginger Custard is a rich, silky, and creamy sauce with aromatic spice flavors. This velvety sauce is wonderful by itself or as a topping for pancakes, waffles, or filling in crepes. A delectable and versatile sauce that can be eaten warm or cold. Consequently, it is yummy cold with a dollop of whipped cream. This custard is full of Autumn flavors. At any rate, the custard is a classic dessert. In fact, most custards are made by cooking over a double boiler.
Gluten-Free Cinnamon Ginger Custard:
In all honesty, it will soon become an Autumn favorite. Drizzled on top of other breakfast foods, desserts, or even by itself.
What comes to mind when you think about Fall? For me, they are Cinnamon, Ginger, Clove, Mace, Allspice, Nutmeg, and Cardamom. These are the spices that came to mind when I was thinking about creating a filling recipe. Hence, this custard contains the spices that are in Pumpkin Pies. Even better when you use it with Homemade Pumpkin Spice Syrup.
Most importantly, don’t allow this custard to boil. Boiling can cause lumps. But don’t worry, just put it through a strainer. Indeed this sauce has so many applications. Thin it for a sauce, or use it for a filling, or use it to drizzle on top of baked goods. Indeed, it is a good recipe to have in your repertoire. To thin simply add a little water at a time until desired consistency.
Amazon has double-boilers, tapioca flour, pink salt, maple sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and clove.
