![Bone Marrow Custard](https://www.westonaprice.org/wp-content/uploads/bonemarrowcustardsquare.png)
My version is based off this recipe from Kasey Culinary Adventures. Learn about the benefits of bone marrow in one of our articles!
Ingredients
- 5 lbs beef marrow bones, unsliced
- 1 cup of cream
- 3 egg yolks
- 3 whole eggs
- 1 Tbs vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup — optional
- ½ teaspoon of sea salt
- 1 tablespoon of cinnamon, or to taste
Instructions
Roast marrow bones at 450°F for 30 minutes. Scrape out marrow when cool.
In bowl, combine marrow (try not to include the oil), 1 cup cream, 3 egg yolks, 3 whole eggs, 2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional), cinnamon to taste, dash of sea salt. Blend all together.
Pour into custard cups or cake pans (I used 2, 5” cake pans) and place those in a water bath.
In oven preheated to 350°F, bake until center is set. My pans took 40 minutes. Turn off oven and open door, allowing water bath to cool.
Is this calling for the bone marrow raw? Just scooped right out of raw marrow bones or are the bones roasted first?
Sorry that was excluded from the directions! Bones are roasted at 450°F for 30 min
Place the pans in a water bath, in the oven? What kind of water both are you using?
Hey Brian- I used my rectangle, glass Pyrex dishes, filled with warm water, then placed my cake pans in them before placing the whole contraption into the oven.
Should the bone marrow be raw or cooked? Thanks for sharing this recipe.
Same question! If cooked how do we cook it?
Roasted! 450°F for 30 min
Looks deli. I have the same question of Louise, I assume it is cooked because it is mentioned not to include the oil.
Yes – roasted at 450° for 30 minutes.
How do you roast the bones? Do you need oil?
