Maple Pots de Creme

🍰 Desserts

Maple-sweetened custard baked in ramekins, the Canadian answer to creme brulee. Silky and spoonable, with a clean, comforting sweetness. Lovely with a few berries or a thin biscuit on the side.

Chef's tip

Ovens lie — an inexpensive thermometer is the cheapest upgrade to your baking.
