Raspberry and Pistachio Crème Brûlée

Ingredients

• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup whole milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup raspberry jam
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh raspberries
• 1/4 cup chopped pistachios
• Salt to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

Step 2: Prepare the Crème Brûlée Base

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the heavy cream, granulated sugar, and flour. Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil.

Step 3: Add Flavorings

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the milk and vanilla extract. Let it cool slightly.

Step 4: Mix in Raspberry and Pistachio Mixture

In a separate bowl, whisk together the raspberry jam, chopped raspberries, and pistachios. Fold this mixture into the cooled crème brûlée base until well combined.

Step 5: Pour the Mixture into Ramekins

Pour the mixture into 6 ramekins or small baking dishes.

Step 6: Bake the Crème Brûlée

Place the ramekins in a large baking dish and add hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until set.

Step 7: Chill the Crème Brûlée

Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Step 8: Caramelize Sugar on Top

Just before serving, sprinkle a thin layer of granulated sugar over the top of each chilled crème brûlée. Caramelize the sugar using a kitchen torch or under the broiler until golden brown.

Serve chilled and enjoy!
