Lemon Poppy Seed Creme Brulee

Lemon Poppy Seed Creme Brulee is a delectable dessert that combines the tangy flavor of lemon with the 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:

- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon poppy seeds
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar

To start, preheat your oven to 325°F. In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream, milk, and granulated sugar. Heat the mixture over medium heat until it starts to simmer.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, lemon zest, and poppy seeds. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly.
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 creme brulee for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly. Remove the ramekin from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature.
Once the creme brulee has cooled, sprinkle the brown sugar on top and use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it forms a crispy crust.
The Lemon Poppy Seed Creme Brulee is a perfect combination of creamy and crunchy textures. The tangy lemon flavor is balanced by the sweetness of the caramelized sugar. This dish is perfect for any occasion and is sure to impress your guests.
