Who knew Crme Brle could be so simple? Crme brle is a French dessert that literally means burnt cream, its a custard with a caramelized shell coating the top.The contrasting layers make it one of my favorite recipes. Its generally served in individual dishes called ramekins. It really doesnt get much better than this! I used coconut milk for this recipe which makes it vegan! And NO it doesnt taste like coconut!! Its creamy, elegant, refreshingand the crispy caramelized crust on top is simply divine.It is one of my absolute favorite desserts!Vegan Crme Brle3/4 cup cane sugar (175 g) + 1/4 cup to caramelize1/4 cup cornstarch (35 g)a pinch of salta pinch of turmeric (optional)2-400 ml can full fat coconut milk (800 ml total, or 3 1/4 cup)4 tsp vanilla extract2 tsp lemon juice1/4 cup vegan butter (55 g)In a saucepan, off the heat, combine sugar (3/4 cup or 175 g), cornstarch, salt and turmeric.Stir in coconut milk, vanilla extract and lemon juice, stirring with a whisk.
