Stef's Slow Cooker Creme Brulee
32
cupcakeproject
"Creme brulee cooked in the slow cooker is an easy way to prepare this creamy dessert and you only need 5 simple ingredients. These can be baked and chilled 2 days ahead. Cover ramekins after chilling 3 hours to prevent condensation on the surface of the custards."

Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Whisk yolks with 1/4 cup sugar and salt in a bowl until smooth; gently whisk in cream and vanilla extract. Strain custard mixture into a liquid measuring cup.
- Line bottom of a 6-quart oval slow cooker with a folded kitchen towel to create a level surface so ramekins won't slide around. Set four 4-ounce ramekins on the towel. Fill slow cooker with enough water to come halfway up sides of ramekins.
- Pour custard evenly into ramekins. Drape paper towels over top of slow cooker liner to absorb any condensation during baking; cover with lid to secure.
- Cook on Low until custard is set but jiggles slightly, about 2 hours.
- Transfer ramekins to a rack to cool completely, about 45 minutes. Refrigerate custards, uncovered, until cold, at least 3 hours.
- Sprinkle 1 teaspoon sugar over each ramekin and shake gently to distribute evenly. Heat the sugar using a culinary torch until melted and browned, about 1 minute.
Footnotes
- Cook's Notes:
- If you have vanilla bean paste, substitute that for more vanilla flavor.
- The water bath helps keep the custards from drying out, and the towel underneath helps them cook gently and evenly.
- If you do not have a culinary torch, place ramekins on a baking sheet and broil until sugar layer is browned, about 1 minute.

This is awesome. Just one point to make. Leave it in the fridge overnight to get the right consistency of the custard. 3 hours wasn't enough. So glad I found this. Thanks!
