Honey-Vanilla Bean Pots de Crème

Clock

Ingredients

  • 2½ cups heavy cream
  • ⅔ cup milk
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla bean paste
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • 6 egg yolks
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup honey, divided
  • 2 Tbsp finely chopped pistachios
  • 2 Tbsp dried edible flowers

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F. Heat cream, milk, vanilla bean paste, and salt in a saucepan over medium-low heat until bubbles begin to form around edges of pan; remove from heat.
  2. Meanwhile, beat egg yolks, sugar, and 2 Tbsp honey in a medium bowl at low speed 2 minutes or until frothy and pale.
  3. Pour heated cream mixture in a very slow, steady stream into egg yolk mixture, whisking until smooth. Strain mixture through a fine mesh sieve.
  4. Divide custard among 8 (4-oz) ramekins. Place ramekins in a large baking dish. Fill baking dish with enough hot water to come halfway up sides of ramekins. Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until a dime-size portion in center of each custard jiggles. Remove from oven, and cool in baking dish 30 minutes.
  5. Remove ramekins from pan, and wrap with plastic wrap, being careful not to let plastic touch surface of custard. Refrigerate 4 hours or up to 3 days before serving.
  6. Drizzle with 2 Tbsp honey, and sprinkle with nuts and edible flowers.
