Keto Creme Brulee is incredibly easy to whip up and extremely delicious , enjoy in just 40 minutes! All you need is 4 ingredients.
When it comes to healthy, delicious, sugar free and gluten free desserts I LOVE this recipe for Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, this amazing recipe for Cinnamon Roll Donuts, and of course, Creme Brulee. The first time I had this delicious custard dessert was actually an Italian restaurant in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Yes, I know. Italian restaurant in Mexico – I think it is just as funny as you. We were wandering around and stumbled across this beautiful restaurant so we went in and it had the best food I have had. For dessert we tried our very first Creme Brulee and have been absolutely hooked ever since! Good thing it is easy to make because I could not live without this amazing dessert. Also, I am SO ready to go back on a vacation! It has been 3 years.. it’s time.
INGREDIENTS YOU NEED
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 6 large egg yolks
- 1 vanilla bean pod, cut in half and scraped out.
- 1/4 cup plus 1 tbs granulated sweetener of choice
Topping:
- Swerve to sprinkle on top and caramelize
Instructions To Make Keto Crème Brulee
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare 4 small ramekins by greasing them up. Place them all in a deep dish or baking dish. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, add your egg yolks and 1 tbs of sweetener and whisk together, until combined.
- In a small saucepan, add your heavy cream, sweetener, scraped out vanilla beans, and full vanilla bean pod in a sauce pan on medium heat, heat it up until the edge just start to bubble, whisking occasionally. Remove from heat once edges start to bubble.
- Bowl water in an electric kettle, enough to fill your dish with water half way up the ramekins.
- Remove vanilla bean pod and slowly add the heavy cream mixture to your egg yolks while continuing to whisk, until completely combined and smooth.
- Distribute the creme brulee mixture evenly amongst the four ramekins. Pour almost boiling water into the baking dish until halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
- Bake the creme brulees for 30-35 minutes, until the centre is only slightly jiggly. Remove from the oven carefully and allow to cool in water for 1 hour and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cool, refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
- When set, remove the creme brulees from the refrigerator and let sit for 20 minutes. Top each creme brulee with 1-2 teaspoons of swerve. Using a blowtorch, torch the tops of each creme brulee to caramelize
