Method
Whisk the eggs and press through a
sieve. Mix 5tbsp of the milk with the
custard powder and the eggs until
smooth. Bring the rest of the milk, the
cream, sugar and salt to a boil while
stirring. Remove the pan from the hob
and add the custard mixture while stir-
ring. Bring everything to the boil while
stirring. Pour the mixture into a bowl,
cover and chill.
Grease the muffin tin. Roll out the puff
pastry and cut out 12circles with a dia-
meter of 10cm. Place the circles in the
recesses of the muffin tin and press in
firmly so there are no bubbles in the
base and the dough does not protrude
out of the recesses.
Divide the custard mixture between the
12recesses. Place the muffin tin in the
oven on the baking and roasting rack.
Bake the pasteis until brown spots ap-
pear on the custard mixture.
Mix together the icing sugar and cinna-
mon and sprinkle it over the pasteis
while still warm. Remove the pasteis
from the tin while still warm and leave
to cool on the baking and roasting rack.
