This recipe combines the tradition of the classic caramel dessert with the subtle sweetness of caramelized apples, offering an unforgettable culinary experience. Whether you choose to prepare it for the holidays or simply as a treat during the week, this caramel cream with apples will bring smiles to the faces of your loved ones. Total preparation time: 1 hour and 15 minutes Preparation time: 30 minutes Baking time: 45 minutes Number of servings: 8 Necessary ingredients: - 8 large eggs - 10 tablespoons of sugar (preferably white or coconut sugar for a more intense flavor) - 2 apples (choose sweet apples like Gala or Fuji for a balanced taste) - 1 vial of rum essence (optional, but recommended for a subtle aroma) - 1 teaspoon of food starch - A pinch of salt - 1 liter of milk (you can use whole milk for a richer cream or plant-based milk for a vegan option) A bit of history: Caramel cream is a dessert that has its roots deeply embedded in the culinary traditions of many cultures. Over time, each region has added a personal touch to this dish, but the combination of caramelized sugar and whipped milk has remained constant. By adding apples, we transform this classic dessert into a modern masterpiece, full of flavor and texture. Step by step: 1. Preparing the caramel: In a 3-liter pot, add the 5 tablespoons of sugar. Heat over low heat, being careful not to stir too much, just swirl the pot occasionally. The sugar will melt and turn amber. Once you have the caramel, use it to coat the walls of the dish – this detail will add a crunchy and sweet note at the end. 2. Preparing the apples: Peel the apples and remove the seeds. Slice them thinly. Arrange the apple slices at the bottom of the caramel-coated pot, arranging them nicely as if making a tart. These apples will add a pleasant contrast of texture and taste. 3. Preparing the mixture: In a large bowl, crack the 8 eggs and lightly beat them with the 5 tablespoons of sugar, without making foam. Add the rum essence, starch, and a pinch of salt. The starch is the secret for a firmer cream that will slice perfectly when turned out onto a plate. 4. Adding the milk: Gradually incorporate the milk, mixing constantly. Make sure everything is well homogenized. When pouring this mixture over the apples, be careful to do it gently, so as not to disturb the apple slices. 5. Baking: Place the pot in a larger tray and add hot water to the tray, halfway up the pot with the cream. This is an important step, as baking in a water bath will help achieve a smooth and creamy texture. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and let the cream bake for about 45 minutes. 6. The final test: After 45 minutes, the cream should be beautifully browned. Do the toothpick test – if it comes out clean, then the caramel cream with apples is ready to be taken out of the oven. 7. Cooling and serving: Let the cream cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for a few hours. When completely cooled, carefully turn the cream onto a plate. The caramel will melt gently, and the apple slices will shine in all their splendor. Serving suggestions: For an even greater treat, serve the cream with a vanilla sauce or freshly whipped cream. You can also add some chopped nuts for an extra crunch. This caramel cream with apples pairs perfectly with a cup of coffee or a fragrant tea. Nutritional information: Each serving of caramel cream with apples contains approximately 250 calories, being rich in protein due to the eggs and providing a considerable amount of calcium from the milk. The apples bring a supply of fiber and vitamins, making this dessert not only delicious but also beneficial. Frequently asked questions: 1. Can I use other fruits? Absolutely! You can experiment with peaches, apricots, or even blueberries. Each fruit will bring a unique flavor. 2. How can I make the cream less sweet? You can reduce the amount of sugar or use a sugar substitute, such as honey or maple syrup. 3. Can I make this recipe vegan? Yes! Replace the eggs with a mix of 1/4 cup of banana puree or 1/4 cup of applesauce for each egg. Use plant-based milk instead of cow's milk. Now that you have all the necessary information, all that's left is to start cooking! The caramel cream with apples is a versatile dessert that will bring joy and satisfaction in every spoonful. Bon appétit!
