Instructions

Preheat the oven to 160 °C (150 °C fan).
Heat the milk with the lemon zest and the cinnamon stick until it just simmers, then leave to infuse for 10 minutes off the heat.
For the caramel, melt the sugar with the water in a small saucepan until it turns amber, then divide it between 4 ramekins.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the 120 g of sugar until the mixture lightens slightly.
Strain the infused milk to remove the zest and cinnamon, then pour it slowly over the eggs, whisking without making foam.
Pour the custard into the caramelised ramekins.
Place the ramekins in a dish filled with hot water up to halfway and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the centre is just set.
Leave to cool, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before turning out onto a plate.
