Blueberry Vanilla Bean Brulee with Fresh Blueberries
Blueberry Vanilla Bean Brulee with Fresh Blueberries is a delectable dessert that will satisfy your sweet tooth. This dish is a perfect combination of creamy custard, fresh blueberries, and a crispy caramelized sugar topping.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/2 vanilla bean, split and scraped
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar for topping
To start, preheat your oven to 325°F. In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and vanilla bean. Heat the mixture over medium heat until it starts to simmer. Remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture becomes pale and thick. Slowly pour the warm milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
Divide the fresh blueberries evenly among the ramekins. Pour the custard mixture over the blueberries. Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the custard is set but still jiggles slightly in the center. Remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature.
Before serving, sprinkle a thin layer of granulated sugar over the top of each ramekin. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it turns golden brown.
The Blueberry Vanilla Bean Brulee with Fresh Blueberries is a perfect dessert for any occasion. The creamy custard is infused with the sweet aroma of vanilla and the fresh blueberries add a burst of fruity flavor. The caramelized sugar topping adds a delightful crunch to the dish.
