Add sugar, salt, vanilla extract, and nutmeg. Mix well.
Slowly stir in the warm milk until well combined.
Pour the mixture into a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish. Sprinkle the top lightly with ground cinnamon.
Place the casserole dish in a larger baking pan. Fill the larger pan with about 1-inch of hot water to create a water bath.
Carefully place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
Remove the custard from the water bath and allow to cool slightly.
Serve warm or chilled, as desired.
