First, let's start making the pastry

Put flour and cold butter, sugar, vanilla, egg yolk and salt together. Mix in a mixer. Take the mass and put it in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Now let's get the cream.

Let's boil the milk with vanilla and sugar. In a bowl we put the egg yolk with the corn starch a ladle of milk, salt and mix until it becomes a uniform dough. Let's put the dough in the milk and mix it with medium heat until the cream is cooked for about 5 minutes.

Let the cream cool in the fridge.

After an hour we start cooking.

Take a pastry mold of about 26 centimeters. Apply the mold and let go into the dough itself about 1 cm. After we get inside the cream. And above we create a lid and put over the cake. 

Brush the lid with a little milk and sprinkle with pine nuts.

Cook for 40 minutes at 160 degrees.

 

After that let it cool down. Good appetite and I hope I was helpful if you have any questions do not hesitate to write.
