§ 3 cups 1% milk
§ 1 vanilla bean
§ 2 large eggs
§ 1/3 cup Truvia or Stevia
§ 1 tsp cornstarch
§ freshly grated nutmeg, for garnish
§ spiced rum or bourbon
Heat 2-1/2 cups milk in a medium saucepan. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds; add the seeds and pod to the saucepan and simmer over medium heat.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar and cornstarch until it turns light yellow.
Temper the eggs by gradually pouring the hot milk mixture, about 1 cup at a time, into the egg mixture, whisking constantly (this is important, otherwise you'll make scrambled eggs). Pour the mixture back into the pan. Place over medium heat and stir constantly with a wooden spoon until the eggnog begins to thicken, about 6-7 minutes. Remove from the heat and immediately stir in the remaining 1/2 cup milk to stop the cooking. Remove the vanilla pod, let it cool and transfer to a pitcher, chilluntil ready to serve.
Spike the eggnog with liquor, if desired (extra points), and garnish with nutmeg or apple pie spice.
