For the custard, whisk the eggs, sugar and vanilla essence. Bring the cream and milk to the boil, then slowly whisk this into the eggs. Pour into the base and sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake at 170 for 40 - 50 mins, depending on how deep the dish is. If it starts to get dark on top, cover with foil and continue baking.
