I’ve only had creme brûlée a handful of times in my life and I’ve never ventured to make it for myself because I always had it in my head that it would be a complicated dessert that likely required some sort of kitchen torch of which I can’t seem to allow myself. But, as it turns out, creme brûlée is actually a pretty simple and easy to make dessert. Especially when you make it using a pressure cooker!

This creme brûlée is started off with a few minutes in a pressure cooker. It then chills for several hours and is finished off when you’re ready to enjoy by broiling in the oven for a few minutes. Yep, it’s just that easy to make yourself creme brûlée at home.

I didn’t do a whole lot by way of lightening the creme brûlée up, though I did some some of the heavy cream for unsweetened almond milk. That was just about it though! I was really happy with the results that the boiler gave me with the sugar topping. It was the perfect crisp hard crack on top of the creme that I wanted.

All in all, I will definitely be making this again soon for friends and family to enjoy!
