Cinnamon Crème Brûlée Tart
I love a good brûlée. (You know that means burn right??) Show me the burn!! This is a delicately flavoured custard that is perfect in a crispy pastry base, don't be afraid to cook the pastry for as long as you need. Crispy is essential!
My husband went and purchased me a full on torch after this recipe, as I was having trouble with the brûlée bit. As you can see. It was however crunchy and delish. As I said. I love a good brûlée!
BENEFITS:
