Coconut Almond Creme Brulee
Coconut Almond Creme Brulee is a delectable dessert that combines the rich flavors of coconut and almond with the creamy texture of creme brulee. This dish is perfect for those who love the taste of coconut and almond and want to indulge in a sweet treat.
To make this Coconut Almond Creme Brulee, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 4 egg yolks
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds
To start, preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, coconut milk, and granulated sugar. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is hot but not boiling.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and almond extract. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly, until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Divide the mixture evenly among four ramekins. Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with enough hot water to come 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 the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool to room temperature. Cover the ramekins with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the custard is chilled and set.
When you're ready to serve, sprinkle each custard with a thin layer of granulated sugar. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it forms a crispy, golden-brown crust. Sprinkle each custard with shredded coconut and sliced almonds for a delicious finishing touch.
This Coconut Almond Creme Brulee is a perfect dessert for any occasion. It has a creamy texture with a crispy caramelized sugar topping that is sure to impress your guests. The coconut and almond flavors add a unique twist to the classic creme brulee, making it a standout dessert.
