Ingredients (per serving):
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter, for drizzling
Cooking Tips:
- Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent the caramel from burning.
- Be careful when adding the cream to the caramel, as it will bubble up.
- Whisk the egg yolk and milk together thoroughly to prevent lumps in the custard.
Instructions:
1. In a small saucepan, heat the sugar over medium heat until it melts and turns amber in color.
2. Remove the pan from the heat and add the heavy cream and sea salt, whisking until smooth.
3. Add the peanut butter and whisk until fully incorporated.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, milk, and vanilla extract.
5. Slowly pour the peanut butter mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
6. Pour the custard mixture into a ramekin or small baking dish.
7. Place the ramekin in a baking dish and fill the dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekin.
8. Bake at 325°F for 30-35 minutes, or until the custard is set.
9. Let the custard cool to room temperature, then drizzle with peanut butter before serving.
