Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325ºF. Arrange 6 4-ounce ramekins in a 9 by 13 pan.
- In a medium saucepan over medium high heat combine the cream, 1/3 cup caramel, vanilla bean and seeds, and salt.
- Bring mixture to a boil stirring constantly. Once mixture reaches a boil, turn off the heat and allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine egg yolks with 1/3 cup stevia erythritol sweetener. Gradually mix hot cream mixture into the old mixture while whisking vigorously to avoid cooking the yolks.
- Strain mixture into a pourable container and fill ramekins evenly to about 3/4 full. Swirl 1 teaspoon caramel sauce into each ramekin, then top them off with the remaining mixture. They should be very full.
- Place the pan containing the filled ramekins in oven. Carefully pour hot water into the pan to come halfway up the outside of the ramekins.
- Bake for about 20-30 minutes or until outer edges are set but custard still wobbles in the middle. Allow to cool on a rack for about 20 minutes before placing in refrigerator. Refrigerate uncovered until completely cool, then cover with plastic wrap.
Before serving
- Preheat broiler to high.
- Mix 2 tablespoons stevia/erythritol mix with the brown sugar Truvia blend. Carefully and evenly spread 1 1/2 teaspoons of this mixture on top of each custard.
- Place ramekins under the broiler and watch carefully for the sweeteners to melt and brown. Remove from broiler and place, uncovered, in refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes or until top layer is hardened. To not refrigerate too long or the top layer will start to become granular.
- Serve with additional caramel sauce if desired.
