Fruit Custard is a rich, creamy dessert made with whole fat milk, custard powder and fresh fruits. Fruit Custard is a perfect chilled dessert enjoyed in the summers.
Fruit custard is a super simple recipe prepared with a handful of ingredients (milk, custard powder, fresh fruits and sugar) and always a favourite amongst children and adults alike. Fruit Custard is soaked in nostalgia for me as my mother always prepared this for our birthdays and any other celebrations at home using the fresh seasonal fruit. We would often go grocery shopping with my mother and would get to choose the fruits we wanted in the fruit custard, and it tasted slightly different each time due to the fruits used. My all-time favourite fruits in fruit custard are bananas, apple, sapota, mango, and pomegranate.
Although lots of flavours of custard powder are available these days, I prefer making this dessert with vanilla custard as it brings out the natural flavours of the different fruits that we add.
