Breakfast Brulee

Here's a delicious breakfast with a fancy twist, making it perfect for Christmas day breakfast.

This recipe is the same as the Breakfast Custards but we have fancied it up for Christmas with burnt sugar top and some berries resulting in a decadent breakfast.

We have also split it into 2 ramekins making it a smaller breakfast, or a starter for Christmas day.

Ingredients:

1/3 cup (a portion cup) of Healthy Blend Muesli

1 cup of your choice of milk

1 egg

1 tablespoon of maple syrup, or your choice of sweetener

1/2 teaspoon of vanilla essence

2 teaspoons of caster sugar (for the top)

Method:

Place the milk and muesli in a microwavable jug and microwave on 50% for 3 minutes, the 50% is important to stop it overflowing. Meanwhile in a separate bowl beat the egg, maple syrup and vanilla together until well incorporated. I use a stick blender.

Pour the eggy mixture into the muesli mix and mix well then divide the mix between 2 ramekins, and microwave on 50% for a further 3 minutes. Once it is cooked, do not stir or you will get scrambled Bircher - which tastes fine but is a weird texture!

Leave to cool and place in the fridge to completely. Remove from the fridge and sprinkle each ramekin with the caster sugar and heat with a blow torch until the sugar melts and slightly burns. You can do this in an oven on grill setting but it is very hard to control. A blow torch (I got mine from a hardware store) will help you get an even burnt sugar.   

Top with yoghurt and your choice of fruit.

Enjoy, it is absolutely delicious!
