Yogurt Creme Brulee with Fresh Fruit and Granola image

This dish combines the best of the decadent luxurious dessert with the classic healthful breakfast for a brunch treat that is light but also special-thanks to a golden brown crust of caramelized sugar. If you have a kitchen blowtorch, you've got to give this one a try.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

16 ounces plain 2% Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract or 12 vanilla bean, split lengthwise, seeds scraped
1 pint fresh blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, or strawberries (or a combination)
Granulated sugar
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup granola
8 teaspoons turbinado sugar

Steps:

  • Mix together the yogurt and vanilla in a medium bowl until combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Put the berries in a small saucepan, add 1/4 cup water, and simmer until just softened, about 5 minutes. Add granulated sugar to taste and stir in the lemon juice. Let cool slightly.
  • Divide the fruit among four 8-ounce ramekins and top with the granola. Fill the ramekins to the top with the yogurt (discard the vanilla bean if using). Cover and put in the freezer for 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of turbinado sugar over each ramekin. Caramelize the sugar with a blowtorch by slowly sweeping the flame back and forth. Let the sugar harden, about 2 minutes, before serving.
