Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 5 egg yolks
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup Musselman’s Apple Butter
- 4-6 teaspoon granulated sugar for topping
- Boiling water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325˚F.
- Heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it starts to get bubbles along the edges.
- Whisk together the egg yolks, granulated sugar and apple butter.
- Slowly pour about 1/4 of the cream into the egg mixture while whisking constantly. Then, slowly pour in the rest of the cream while whisking constantly, until combined.
- Strain the custard through a fine mesh sieve, a strainer or cheesecloth.
- Place 4 ramekins (or 6 smaller ones) into a roasting pan and divide the custard into the ramekins.
- Carefully pour enough hot water into the roasting pan until it comes halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
- Bake at 325˚F degrees for 40-45 minutes, until the creme brûlée is set but still trembles in the center.
- Place the creme brûlée in the fridge to cool for 2 hours (or up to 3 days, covered).
- Before serving, remove from the fridge and sprinkle each creme brûlée with 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar. Caramelize the sugar with a kitchen torch, slowly moving it back and forth about 3-4 inches above the sugar. If you do not have a kitchen torch, caramelize the sugar under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, watching carefully so that it doesn’t burn!
