Instructions
Add sugar and vanilla extract to a food processor and blitz until it becomes a fine powder.
Sift the vanilla sugar through a sieve over a mixing bowl. Then, add the powdered milk, corn flour, and yellow food coloring.
Either return the mixture to your food processor or sift the mixture through a sieve once more, you will need a second bowl, to get rid of any lumps.
Whisk to thoroughly combine and either use right away or store in an airtight container for later use.
Notes
Keep in mind that the nutrition information is for an entire cup of custard powder, not a serving.
To make this custard powder vegan, omit the powdered milk and use rice milk when making it into custard sauce.
The food coloring is added to give your custard its signature yellow color, but it can be skipped.
I usually prefer to use gel food coloring for baking, but the liquid food coloring is best for use in this custard powder recipe.
To extend the shelf life of your custard powder, store it in an airtight container somewhere cool and dark like a cabinet or pantry.
DIY custard powder can be stored for up to 3 months but is best used within the first month.
