Servings: 6 servings
Small 7-8 cm/3 inch oven dishes
Ingredients
- 5 egg yolks
- 80 grams of fine granulated sugar
- 500 ml whipping cream
- 1 vanilla pod
- cane sugar
Instructions
- Put the egg yolks and fine granulated sugar in a bowl and using a whisk, whisk well together.
- Pour the whipping cream into a saucepan. Cut the vanilla pod in half lengthwise and add the vanilla seeds to the whipping cream.
- Heat the whipping cream while stirring and then pour it in with the egg yolks while continuing to stir in the bowl.
- Divide the mixture among the baking dishes. Place them in baking dish, put in the oven and pour in a layer of hot water.
- Bake the crème brûlée for 45-50 minutes (larger dishes up to 60 minutes) in the oven at 150°C/300℉ (conventional).
- The dessert is good when the mixture is firm, but in the center of the dish it may still be a little jiggly.
- Let them cool for a while on the counter and then put them in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours to set.
- After they have set, remove them from the refrigerator and sprinkle a thin layer of cane sugar on top. Use a blow torch to caramelize the sugar layer. Putting them under the grill until the sugar is melted and turns golden brown is also an option.
