EASY NO-BAKE CRèME BRûLéE



Easy No-Bake Crème Brûlée image

This elegant and impressive no-bake crème brûlée is easy enough to make at home.

Provided by Annalise

Categories     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup heavy whipping cream ((250 ml))
1/2 cup whole milk ((125 ml))
1/2 cup granulated sugar ((100 grams))
1 vanilla bean (, split lengthwise)
4 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Granulated sugar (, for brûléeing)

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the cream, milk and sugar. Use a sharp knife to scrape the vanilla beans from the pod and add to the saucepan. Place over medium heat and stir to dissolve the sugar. Heat just until bubbles appear at the edges and mixture is steaming (do not bring to a boil).
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the egg yolks and cornstarch in a medium bowl. Add the hot cream mixture in a slow steady stream while whisking constantly.
  • Pour mixture back into the saucepan and return to medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly with a spatula to scrape the bottom, until mixture just comes to a boil and thickens. This will take 3-5 minutes, increase heat if needed. Once thickened, cook for an additional 1 minute, while continuing to stir.
  • Remove from heat and pass custard through a mesh strainer to remove any lumps. Spoon into individual ramekins. Place in the fridge, uncovered, to set up for at least 2 hours.
  • When ready to serve, sprinkle ramekins generously with granulated sugar. Working with one at a time, pass a kitchen torch over the surface until sugar melts and caramelizes. Serve immediately.

Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     dessert

Time 3h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 quart heavy cream
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
1 cup vanilla sugar, divided
6 large egg yolks
2 quarts hot water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Place the cream, vanilla bean and its pulp into a medium saucepan set over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat, cover and allow to sit for 15 minutes. Remove the vanilla bean and reserve for another use.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup sugar and the egg yolks until well blended and it just starts to lighten in color. Add the cream a little at a time, stirring continually. Pour the liquid into 6 (7 to 8-ounce) ramekins. Place the ramekins into a large cake pan or roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake just until the creme brulee is set, but still trembling in the center, approximately 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Remove the ramekins from the roasting pan and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 3 days. Remove the creme brulee from the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes prior to browning the sugar on top. Divide the remaining 1/2 cup vanilla sugar equally among the 6 dishes and spread evenly on top. Using a torch, melt the sugar and form a crispy top. Allow the creme brulee to sit for at least 5 minutes before serving.

LEMON CREME BRULEE



Lemon Creme Brulee image

This lemon creme brulee is an easy dessert to make and bake. The recipe makes four to six custards and it can be made in advance.

Provided by Diana Rattray

Categories     Dessert

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lemons
2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup granulated sugar
5 large egg yolks
Pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 to 4 cups boiling water (enough to reach halfway up the outside of the ramekins)
2 to 3 tablespoons superfine sugar (turbinado or raw sugar, for topping)
Optional Candied Lemon Peel
1 large lemon
2 cups water
2 1/4 cups sugar (granulated, divided )

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • With a fine grater, zest 2 lemons . Set the lemon zest aside and then juice 1 lemon. Refrigerate the second zested lemon for another use.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 F.
  • Place six 4-ounce ramekins or four 6-ounce ramekins in a large baking pan or roasting pan.
  • Put the heavy cream and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar in a medium saucepan. Add the finely grated lemon zest-about 2 tablespoons-to the cream. Heat until the cream begins to simmer.
  • While the cream is heating, beat the egg yolks and salt in a small bowl.
  • Slowly whisk the hot cream mixture into the egg yolks.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to the mixture along with 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  • Divide the cream mixture evenly among the 6 ramekins.
  • Add boiling water to a depth of about halfway up the ramekins.
  • Bake the custards for about 30 minutes, or until the creme brulee has only a slight jiggle in the center when moved.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and leave the ramekins in the water bath for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the ramekins from the pan. Discard the water from the pan and place the ramekins back in the pan. Refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 3 to 4 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
  • Just before serving, top the custards with about 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons of superfine or raw sugar. Gently rotate the ramekin on the countertop to distribute the sugar evenly over the top. Slowly caramelize the sugar with a blow torch or a kitchen torch. The edges of the ramekins will get hot as you caramelize the sugar, so wear an oven mitt to move them.
  • Alternatively, you may place the sugar topped custards in a pan and place the pan under a preheated broiler. Broil just until the sugar has caramelized , rotating the pan about halfway through. Watch carefully.
  • Gather the ingredients.
  • With a vegetable peeler, remove the outer yellow peel from a large lemon. Slice the strips of lemon into thin strips.
  • Put the lemon peel in a saucepan with 2 cups of water. Place the pan over high heat and bring to a boil. Drain.
  • To the lemon peel in the saucepan, add 2 cups of granulated sugar and 1 cup of fresh water. Place the pan over medium heat; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the peels appear translucent. Drain and arrange the peels in a single layer on a sheet of parchment paper to cool.
  • Toss the cooled lemon peel with about 1/4 cup of sugar to coat. Use to garnish desserts.
  • Enjoy!
