How To Make Avocado Creme Brulee
A traditional creme brulee requires a trip to the oven in a bain marie, to ensure the custard cooks slowly and without curdling. It is a process that takes an hour or so, not counting the cool down time.
However, an avocado creme brulee doesn't require baking. Not only are you saving time but you get to enjoy a tasty vegan dessert in just minutes.
