Korslose Melktert

Today I made Korslose Meltert (Crustless Milktart) on my own for the first time. My Mum got the recipe from her Dad (he made it often) and he got it from his mother. So it's from my great Ouma (Afrikaans for Grandmother). A milktart is a very typical South African desert or cake.
It was my first time to every separate eggs and Mum said I did a really good job.
The hardest part was beating the egg white by hand. I also did not enjoy having to put the pie dishes into the hot oven. The dishes are shallow and the mixture is very runny so I messed a bit. It was fun to sprinkle the cinnamon on afterwards though. I love this milktart. Have a look here for the recipe.
