Ingredients
- Butter or spray oil, for greasing
- 200 ml milk
- 150 ml cream
- 1 vanilla bean, split, seeds scraped
- 3 eggs
- ¼ cup caster sugar
- 125 g raspberries, to serve
For the caramel
- ½ cup white sugar
- ¼ cup (60 ml) water
- ½ tsp white vinegar
Resting time: 10 minutes
Chilling time: overnight
Instructions
- Lightly grease four 9 cm small ramekins with butter or spray oil.
- Combine the ingredients for the caramel in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Cook until it turns a deep caramel colour, then equally divide between the greased ramekins. Allow to cool until it sets hard.
- Preheat the oven to 150°C fan-forced (adjust tremperature if using a conventional oven). Combine the milk, cream and vanilla bean in a second small saucepan and heat to a gentle simmer. Remove from the heat and allow to stand for 10 minutes to infuse.
- Whisk the eggs and sugar in a large bowl, then whisk in the vanilla milk mixture. Strain with a fine mesh sieve, then pour into the prepared ramekins. Transfer the ramekins into a large baking tray half-filled with hot water, then bake for 25-30 minutes. Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, then refrigerate overnight.
- To serve, run a sharp knife around the edge of the crème caramels, then invert into a serving bowls. Serve the crème caramels with fresh raspberries.
