Mix together flour, sugar, salt, vanilla, lemon zest, and eggs.  Melt butter and whisk in very well.  Blend in milk, stirring well to prevent the formation of lumps.  Pour the custard mixture over the berries in the ramekins.

Bake in the center of the oven for 25 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.

Dust with confectioner’s sugar.  May be served chilled or warm.
