In the spirit of all things pumpkin spice today we are sharing a Sugar-Free Pumpkin Creme Brulee recipe that will knock your fall themed socks off!
Sugar-Free Pumpkin Creme Brulee Recipe:
Creme Brulee seems like a decedent caviar dreams type dessert, but in England, it was originally known as "burnt cream." That changes things a bit now doesn't it? I image a young new wife preparing her first custard and apologetically placing it on the table burnt while her new husband squints and lovingly takes a bite. Much to everyone's surprise, this burnt cream is delicious, so they share the recipe with everyone in town. Of course, the older wives in the village can't possibly share something called burnt cream so they rename it and the rest is history. Or is it herstory? 😉
This recipe calls for vanilla extract but chocolate, orange, or even fruit flavored creme brulee is also delicious!
Sugar-Free Pumpkin Creme Brulee Ingredients:
2 ½ Cups Heavy Whipping Cream
4 Egg Yolks
½ Cup Pumpkin Puree
6 Tbs. Monkfruit Sugar
1 Tbs. Vanilla Extract
½ tsp. Pumpkin Pie Spice or Cinnamon
½ tsp Salt
6 Creme Brulee Ramekins
Sugar-Free Pumpkin Creme Brulee Directions:
In a medium heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and monkfruit sugar until creamy, and set aside.
In a medium pot, bring the 2 ½ cups of heavy whipping cream to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently.
Slowly pour the heavy cream into the egg mixture, stirring the whole time.
Then, place the bowl over a medium pot filled ¼ of the way with boiling water. Or, if you have a double boiler, put the mixture into that instead.
Continue to boil the water, and cook the mixture on top for about 4 minutes, or until it begins to thicken.
Remove from heat, and add in the pumpkin, vanilla, spices, and salt.
Pour about ¾ of a cup into six ramekins, and set them into a large baking pan.
Fill the baking pan with boiling water until the water reached halfway up the ramekins.
Bake at 350 degrees F. for 30 minutes. The creme brulee should be slightly firm and golden on top.
Place in the refrigerator for at least an hour to chill.
Set your oven to a high broil.
Sprinkle monkfruit sugar over the top of each creme brulee, and place in the oven for a minute or two.
I recommend keeping the oven door open and keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
Enjoy immediately!
