Lemon Poppy Seed Brulee with Poppy Seeds Topping is a delectable dessert that combines the tangy flavor of lemon with the nutty crunch of poppy seeds. This dish is perfect for those who love a sweet and sour taste in their desserts.

To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon poppy seeds
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar


Cooking Tips:

- Use fresh lemon zest for the best flavor
- Be careful not to overcook the brulee, as it can become too firm
- Let the brulee cool before adding the poppy seed topping
To start, preheat your oven to 325°F. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and granulated sugar until well combined. Add in the heavy cream, lemon zest, and poppy seeds, and whisk until fully incorporated.
Pour the mixture into a ramekin and place it in a baking dish. Fill the baking dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekin.
Bake the brulee for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly. Remove the ramekin from the baking dish and let it cool to room temperature.
Once the brulee has cooled, sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it forms a crispy, golden-brown crust.
The Lemon Poppy Seed Brulee with Poppy Seeds Topping is a creamy and indulgent dessert that is sure to impress your guests. The combination of tangy lemon and nutty poppy seeds creates a unique and delicious flavor profile. This dish is perfect for any occasion and is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
