To make it you only need to have a mold that is not removable, because the final dough is very liquid and could escape us in the oven, a whisk and a kitchen brush. Easy, right? Well, we already see you going to the supermarket for a package of filo pastry, the rest are basic ingredients found in any fridge. We already have ours waiting for us in the fridge.
We will begin brushing each phyllo sheet with melted butter. Then we also brush a non-removable mold of about 23 cm in diameter also with melted butter.
Then, with each sheet of phyllo pastry brushed, we make a kind of strip folding each sheet several times in a zig zag and we are placing it in the mold from the center towards the edges giving it the shape of a flower.
Preheat the oven to 175 degrees and bake the dough for 15 minutes.
Once the time passes, to make the cream, we put the milk and cinnamon in a bowl. We heat the mixture two minutes in the microwave or on the fire.
On the other hand we make a porridge with the eggs, sugar and cornstarch. Add the milk, stir and pour the mixture over the dough, straining it previously with a sieve and return to bake for 20 minutes.
Sprinkle with icing sugar and enjoy hot or cold, as you like.
