It has been more than a week since I last baked.....the children have been asking : What's for dessert?
Finally, we agreed on creme caramel. I have 6 eggs, 1 litre of milk, 300g sugar, 1 vanilla bean...great. Everything I needed.
I liked the colour of the caramel. You might like to try this too.
1. Pre-heat the oven to 150 degree C.
2. Melt 100g of sugar in a sauce pan on medium heat. Melt sugar till a golden brown liquid.
3. Pour the caramel in individual ramekins and set aside.
4. In a sauce pan, bring the milk with vanilla bean to boil and then remove from the heat.
5. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with 200g of sugar until blended. Slowly pour the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture while still stirring. Pour this mix over the caramel in the individual ramekins.
6. Put the ramekins in a shallow baking dish. Pour boiling water into the dish to reach half way up the sides.
7. Bake for 30 minutes until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature before placing them in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
8. Slide a knife along the inside edge of the ramekins, swiftly turn it over onto a dessert plate.
9. Enjoy!
This blog is like a diary to me. With the photos, I get to remember what I have baked. It's a great hobby.
Thinking of doing something really easy for dessert. No baking, No mixing, No standing too long in the kitchen!
