  • 1/2 cup sugar (adjust sweetness to your liking)

  • pinch of salt
  • 5 egg yolks

Instructions

  2. Prepare the Cream Mixture: In a saucepan, combine heavy cream, vanilla bean, passion fruit, and salt. Heat the mixture over low heat until hot. Let it sit for 10 minutes to infuse flavors, then remove the vanilla bean.
  3. Combine Egg Yolks and Sugar: In a bowl, beat egg yolks and sugar until light. Gradually mix in warm cream. Strain the mixture to remove seeds and textures.
  4. Fill Ramekins: Divide the mixture into ramekins placed in a baking dish filled with water halfway up the sides.
  5. Bake: Bake the creme brulee for 40-47 minutes until just set. Cool and refrigerate for 4-6 hours or overnight.
  6. Caramelize Sugar: Before serving, top each custard with sugar and caramelize using a blow torch or broiler. Optionally, garnish with fresh passion fruit.
  7. Serve: Enjoy the Passion Fruit Creme Brûlée as a delightful dessert.

Notes

  • You can adjust the sweetness of the creme brulee according to your preference.
  • For best results, allow the creme brulee to set overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Alternatively, enjoy the custard without the caramelized sugar topping.
