Instructions

Notes

  • Chilling is essential for the custard-like texture.
  • Use thick Greek yogurt to avoid excess moisture.
  • A slight jiggle in the center is normal after baking.
  • Apples can be replaced with pears for variation.
  • Best served chilled or slightly rested at room temperature.
