Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups nonfat milk
2 tablespoons nonfat dry milk powder (powder)
1 cup egg substitute
1/3 cup sugar (granulated)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup granulated sugar (for the tops)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Mix 1/2 cup nonfat milk with the dry milk. Whisk in remaining milk, egg, sugar, and vanilla. Blend Well.
  • Strain into a large bowl, skimming off any foam or bubbles.
  • Divide mixture among 6 ramekins or custard cups. Place in a water bath and bake until set around edges, but still loose in the center, about 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from oven and leave in water bath until cooled.
  • Remove cups from water bath and chill for at least 2 hours, or up to 2 days.
  • When ready to serve, sprinkle about 2 teaspoons of sugar over each custard.
  • For best results, use a small, hand held torch to melt sugar.
  • If you do not have a torch, place under boiler until sugar melts.
  • Re chill custards for a few minutes before serving.
  • Serves 6.

Tips:

  • Use low-fat milk and cream to reduce the fat content without sacrificing taste.
  • Stevia is a good low-carb, low-calorie sweetener that can be used instead of sugar.
  • Egg whites can be used instead of whole eggs to reduce the fat and cholesterol content.
  • Baking the crème brûlée in a water bath prevents it from curdling and ensures that it cooks evenly.
  • Chill the crème brûlée for at least 4 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar topping just before serving.

Conclusion:

This low-fat crème brûlée is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own dietary needs. Be sure to experiment with different flavors and toppings to find your perfect combination. Enjoy!
