Osmanthus Soy Milk Egg Tarts 桂花豆奶蛋挞
I love eating egg tarts that you can find at the Chinese pastry shops, dim sum restaurants or market kuih stalls. There are two types of pastry, flaky and buttery ~ in fact I love both. So when I saw Cass made her healthy Soy Milk Egg Tarts sometime ago, I immediately fell in love with it. I told myself I’ve to make it soon. To make the tarts a bit more special, I tweaked the recipe by adding osmanthus sugar syrup to the custard. The colour of the custard wasn’t very appealing, it was a little bit grey due to the greyish tint of the soy milk. Soy milk is not purely white compared to the fresh milk but the bonus is that the smooth egg tart had a sweet scent of osmanthus fragrance with every bite. Love eating them warm, with the crispy base and smooth custard. Perfect to go with a cup of osmanthus tea!

I can smell the lovely fragrance of the osmathus flowers from your egg tarts across the screen!
Ann, you brought egg tarts to a higher level! I can already imagine the fragrance of the osmanthus in the soy milk. Just a quick question, is this egg tart pastry the flaky pastry type or the buttery type?
Hi Grace, Thanks for your compliment. The pastry is buttery type same as my Pumpkin Tart.
Hi Ann, the dried osmathus on your egg tarts looks like gold paper. Looks yummy!
哇。。好有创意。。我喜欢桂花茶,这个加了桂花肯定很香哦。。
Sally, 真的有很清香的桂花味。我朋友吃了都赞好 🙂
That is beautiful and delicious – such a lovely version
These little tarts look so cute, I like the fact that you used the fragrant osmanthus.Thanks for the nice comment on my new website…have a great week Ann 😀
Hi Ann, thank you for showing me another way to cook with osmamthus flowers. You are very creative.
Hi Lian, you're welcome 🙂 Thank you for your comment.
Lovely tart shells and looks very healthy too.
Hi ALL, Thank you for your comments and nice words 🙂
Hello, I would like to know where can I get the osmanthus flower? Your pictures are making me drool 🙂
Hi Edlyn, Thank you for your comment. You can get the osmanthus flower from Kwong Cheong Thye or Sunlik.
Such lovely tarts Ann. I am new to osmanthus. Is it a floral fragrance? I ask because my daughter has recently started to do more cooking with soy products since my grandson is allergic to milk products. Your tarts would be so special for him and she is the baker in the family:)Thank you so much for sharing Ann…P.S. If you do bake a Bundt, feel free to add it to my blog. I think you should be able to add it under "nourishments." Unfortunately, I don't know how to do it. You can also add it to the comment section if you like. I'll be posting on Friday for National Bundt Day:)
加了桂花味道一定很赞,等学习假期我也要做。。。
Hi Ann, the tart skin looks so thin & must be crispy! Love the soy milk flavour of these egg tarts, I actually haven't had soy milk egg tarts before, hehehe!
Jessie, The pastry skin is crispy after baked. I don't have the tart mould of this shape, so I just bought the foil one.You know Cass said her egg tart don't have the taste of soy milk, If you want to make, can use fresh milk too.
还有中文食谱看,太好了!!!
