Sluttishly Easy: Bramley Apple Brûlée
By krystallondon
Apparently, this week is Bramley Apple Week
- 4 bramley apples
- 4 egg yolks
- 70 g sugar
- 400 ml single cream
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- Ramekins, to serve in (teacups will do if you're stuck, but they need to be oven-proof so don't use your best china if you're unsure!)
- A blender, electric whisk, or strong arms
- Roasting dish
- Kitchen blowtorch (you can use a normal grill if you haven't got one, but I like them because they make me feel powerful. Like a superhero, or one of Charlie's Angels. Ahem...)
