Maple Creme Brûlée With Candied Pecans

If you follow my Instagram account, you may have noticed that I spent a few weeks in Vermont. The land of maple and cheese. So, to pay homage to this wonderful state I made a delicious, creamy, and sweet Maple Creme Brûlée.

In case you didn’t know, Creme Brûlée is one of the easiest desserts to put together and is perfect for a fancy dinner. One spoonful and you’ll think you’re in a 5-star restaurant.

To make the Brûlée part of this custard, you don’t necessary need to be invest in a torch. You can just sprinkle the tops with sugar and insert under the broiler or cook a caramel like I did, and pour on top.

I love a thick layer of crunchy caramel that mixes with the creamy maple custard. For the ramekins, use your favorite shape or get them HERE at Amazon.

I decided to serve these with yummy candied pecans. The combination of the two flavors and textures together is like a party in your mouth. If you’re not into pecans, simply omit them or substitute with walnuts or almonds.

During the weeks I spent in Vermont, I got to try maple everything, and of course, I was hooked. It has a much more deep warm taste than regular sugar and you can literally use it in sweet and savory dishes. Heck, I even drank some maple soda. Yum!
