Crème Brûlée Toast

Cream

• 1 egg yolk
• 10 g (about 2 tsp) sugar
• 50 g milk
• 50 g whipping cream
• 1 tbsp cornstarch

To Assemble

• 3 slices bread
• 3 tbsp sugar (for the brûlée top)

Directions

• Make the cream: in a pot, combine the egg yolk, 10 g sugar, milk, whipping cream, and cornstarch. Stir until fully mixed.
• Set over medium heat and stir constantly until the cream thickens, then take off the heat.
• Flatten the middle of each bread slice to create a shallow well for the cream, then toast in an air fryer at 180°C for 5 minutes.
• Spread the thickened cream over each piece of toast.
• Sprinkle 1 tbsp sugar over the cream and blowtorch until the sugar melts and hardens into a crackly caramel crust.
