creme brulee oatmeal with raspberries

My daughter loves Crème Brûlée for dessert (as do I as well), so I bought a kitchen torch so I could make it at home more often. And shortly afterwards I stumbled upon this recipe (except I made a few changes suggested by reviewers). The only special equipment needed is a kitchen torch. At some time, I'd like to to try mixed berries (or banana slices) in place of the raspberries. But when I made this for a special family breakfast, I followed the original recipe and used fresh raspberries, and it was excellent. You can drizzle a bit of maple syrup on top, but we liked it without syrup.

How To Make creme brulee oatmeal with raspberries

  • 1
    Grease sides and bottom of 4 (10-oz) ramekins with the butter. Set ramekins aside.
  • 2
    In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Set maple cream aside.
  • 3
    In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil; stir in the oats, almonds and salt. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat; stir in brown sugar and 1/4 cup of the maple cream. Let stand, covered, for 2 minutes.
  • 4
    Divide raspberries among the 4 ramekins. Spoon cooked oatmeal over raspberries and gently smooth out the top; sprinkle granulated sugar evenly over the smooth oatmeal layer.
  • 5
    Using a kitchen torch, heat the sugar in a circular motion until caramelized (but not too close or it will burn.) Serve immediately.
