There are many different ways of making Melktert. The one method is to cook the filling on the stove and add it to a prepared crust. The other is to bake it in the oven together with the crust.
A crust can be made from “Tennis” or “Marie” biscuits, although the traditional way is to use a pastry dough crust.
The traditional filling is made from milk and eggs, so basically a custard. More modern versions use starch (Maizina) and some even use Condensed milk.
You can also make milk tart in a microwave oven.
See our page about baking substitutes for more information about Maizina

If you prefer to have a thinner crust use less dough and the remainder of the crust can be rolled and pressed to make cookies.
Ingredients:
Crust:
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
250g butter (cold)
1/4 cup ice water
1 egg yolk
Filling:
4 cups milk
3/4 cups flour
10 tbsp sugar (can even do 7 or 8)
4 eggs
1tsp salt
3 tbsp butter
1,5 tsp vanilla essence
Crust:
Sift flour, and salt.
Grate butter and rub into flour mixture.
Whisk ice water and egg yolk foam, mix lightly into flour mixture.
Place dough in the fridge to cool.
When it is ice-cold, press dough into a pre-buttered tart pan (I used 28cm diameter) and place it back in the fridge while you make the tart filling.
Filling:
Pre Heat the oven to 180 C
In a medium pot, heat 3 cups milk on stovetop, medium heat. Separately sift flour, and mix with sugar, 1 cup milk and salt. (Make sure there are no lumps!)
Stir flour mixture into warm milk and simmer till cooked and thickened up, custard texture. Keep stirring regularly to make sure no lumps. And medium heat to not burn the milk!!
Separate eggs: Whisk 4 egg yolks and mix with a little warm milk mixture before adding all into the pot and mix well.
Add the butter and keep stirring till all melted, also add vanilla. Take the mixture off the stovetop. Whisk the egg whites well but not dry, and lightly fold (not whisk) into the milk mixture.
Pour filling into the tart pan.
Bake in pre-heated oven for 45min or till light golden brown crust+filling.
Let it cool down and sprinkle lightly with cinnamon or cinnamon sugar mix.
