Preparation

Step 1

1. Heat oven to 350°F. In 1-quart saucepan, heat milk just to boiling; cool.
2. In small bowl, beat egg, egg whites, sugar, maple flavor and salt; gradually stir in milk. Pour into four 6-ounce custard cups. Drop 1 teaspoon maple syrup carefully onto center of mixture in each cup (syrup will sink to bottom).
3. Place cups in 9-inch square pan on oven rack. Pour very hot water into pan to within 1/2 inch of tops of cups. Bake about 45 minutes or until knife inserted halfway between center and edge comes out clean. Remove cups from water. Let stand 15 minutes.
4. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours but no longer than 12 hours. Unmold at serving time. Top with fruit. Immediately cover and refrigerate any remaining custards.
