Perfect for any time of year

This crème brûlée is ideal for such moments. It is elegant, looks beautiful on the table, and despite its classic form, it remains light, filling and suitable for a flexible fit diet. You can serve it after a workout, with afternoon coffee, on a lazy evening, or as a dessert for guests — I guarantee that everyone will be surprised at how easy it is to prepare.

Why make it?

This dessert combines everything we love about classic crème brûlée — velvety, silky cream and that unique, crunchy crust — but it's enriched with extra protein, less sugar and a more balanced nutritional profile. This means you can treat yourself to something sweet without feeling heavy or like you're ‘straying from the plan.’ It's a great alternative to regular desserts that only give you temporary satisfaction.

Ingredients (for 2 servings)

• 2 egg yolks
• 100 ml 30% cream
• 50 ml milk
• 15 g xylitol
• 20 g crème brûlée-flavoured protein supplement - ALLNUTRITION WHEY DELICIOUS
• 20 g sugar (for caramelisation)

Preparation

First, gently beat the egg yolks together with the xylitol, just until the ingredients are combined, so that the mixture is smooth and uniform, but not aerated. In a separate pot, mix the cream with the milk and protein supplement and heat over low heat, almost to boiling point — but do not let the liquid start to bubble vigorously. When the mixture is hot, pour it in a thin stream into the egg yolk mixture, stirring constantly to prevent the eggs from curdling. Pour the mixture through a sieve to achieve a perfectly smooth consistency.

Pour the finished mixture into ramekins and place in an oven preheated to 160°C for about 20 minutes, until the cream sets slightly and is springy to the touch. After removing from the oven, allow to cool completely, then transfer to the fridge for at least two or three hours to acquire the right texture and cool delicacy. Just before serving, sprinkle the surface with a thin layer of sugar and brown it with a kitchen blowtorch, creating a crispy, golden crust that will crack under a spoon with a satisfying crunch.

The role of protein in shaping your figure

Adding protein supplements is not only about taste, but also about supporting your body – especially if you care about your figure. Protein helps you feel full, supports muscle regeneration and growth, and the right amount in your diet promotes weight loss.

This dessert also fits in with these principles: it is sweet, creamy and pleasantly "pampering", yet more nutritious than the classic version. Thanks to this, even on a weight-loss diet, you can enjoy a dessert that not only tastes good, but also works towards your goals.
