INGREDIENTS
1 large Whole Egg (50g)
4 large Egg Whites (approx. 120g total)
200 grams Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk (60g)
1/2 Vanilla Bean
1 tablespoon Brown Sugar
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare a water bath by placing a baking dish with hot water on the lower rack.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, low-fat Greek yogurt, and unsweetened almond milk until fully combined.
Scrape the seeds from half a vanilla bean into the mixture and stir to incorporate the flavor evenly.
Strain the mixture into individual ramekins or custard cups to ensure a smooth texture.
Place the ramekins in a roasting pan and carefully pour the hot water into the pan, reaching halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the custard is gently set and slightly wobbly in the center.
Once set, remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool slightly.
Sprinkle a thin, even layer of brown sugar over the top of each custard.
Place the ramekins under a preheated broiler for 2-3 minutes until the sugar melts and caramelizes, forming a crisp top.
Allow the custard to cool for a few minutes before serving, enjoying the contrast of creamy interior with a caramelized topping.
