Vegan Crème Brûlée

This Vegan Crème Brûlée recipe is a vegan twist on the classic french dessert. All you need are 7 ingredients for this rich and creamy vegan dessert.

As you may know by now, I love working with silken tofu. Silken tofu is so versatile and the custard-like texture is perfect for a Vegan Crème Brûlée.

This recipe could not be easier, simply blend the silken tofu with the vanilla paste. Then bring the mix together with sugar, cornstarch and soy milk to a boil until the creme thickens. For the nice yellow colour, add a pinch of turmeric.

Just before serving, sprinkle sugar onto the custard, then caramelize the top with a butane torch.

Enjoy the sound of the the lovely crack when your spoon breaks through the top.

Ingredients

• 350 g silken tofu
• 1 teaspoon vanilla paste
• 150 ml unsweetened soy milk
• 110 g granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon corn starch
• 2 tablespoons salted vegan butter
• pinch of turmeric

Instructions

• Blend the silken tofu with the vanilla paste until very smooth.
• In a small sauce pan, heat 100 ml of soy milk and sugar until sugar has dissolved.
• Mix corn starch with the rest of the soy milk and whisk until well combined.
• Add the silken tofu mix to the milk, whisk until well combined, then add the corn flour milk mix.
• Cook over medium low heat, whisking constantly to prevent lumps, until the creme thickens.
• Take off from heat and whisk in 2 tablespoons of salted vegan butter.
• Divide evenly into 2 - 3 ramekins, cover with plastic wrap and cool down at room temperature. Then store the ramekins for 4 hours or longer in the fridge.
• Just before serving, take the ramekins out of the fridge. Sprinkle an even layer of granulated sugar on top of a serving and torch it until the sugar starts to melt and a deep golden brown coating forms.
• Rest for a few minutes, decorate with some raspberries and then serve immediately.
