- Grease and line a 20cm x 30cm baking tin with baking paper.
- Place milk, cinnamon and lemon rind in a medium-sized saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Whisk eggs, egg yolks, caster sugar, cornflour and vanilla in a large bowl until well combined.
- Strain the warm milk mixture over the egg mixture and whisk until combined. Discard the cinnamon sticks and lemon rind.
- Return the mixture to a clean medium-sized saucepan. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium-low heat for 5 minutes or until the mixture bubbles and thickens. It is important to stir constantly; otherwise, the mixture will begin to clump.
- Pour the thickened mixture into the prepared baking tin and smooth the top. Cool completely, then place in the fridge for 3 hours or until firm.
- Turn the set mixture out onto a chopping board. Cut into 3.5cm squares. Coat each square in flour, shaking off any excess.
- Spray the basket of an air fryer with oil. Add some custard squares to the fryer and spray with oil. Cook at 200°C for 10 minutes or until golden. Repeat with the remaining custard squares.
- While the custard squares cook, prepare the cinnamon sugar by mixing the sugar and cinnamon together.
- Sprinkle the custard squares with cinnamon sugar and serve.
