Breakfast Crème Brulee

This single serving breakfast crème brulee is simple and easy to make, with a layer of fruit preserves on the bottom. It could also be a healthier dessert option.

It amazes and delights me that Memphis has not had more than a handful of 100+ degree, crazy humid days of summer. It’s July and should’ve been over 100 solid for weeks now but like I said you will not hear a single complaint from me about the lack of sticky heat.

It is definitely summer outside just a more bearable, fun temperature where getting out of the pool and lying in the sun really does dry you off instead of turning into sweat. And rain actually cool the temperature a little instead of turning into steam and feeling like walking into a sauna fully clothed.

To go with the unusual yet pleasant weather, how about an unusual treat for breakfast – crème brulee made with Greek yogurt! Who says it has top be made with heavy cream and egg yolks? The name means burnt cream and after all Greek yogurt is creamy and there’s burnt sugar on top. Sounds like crème brulee to me.

Heck, you could even eat this for dessert if you want a healthier version for your post-dinner sweet tooth. Or your post-every-single-meal sweet tooth if you are like me.
