Grapefruit Brulee

Grapefruit, brown sugar and a torch. Super simple Grapefruit Brulee recipe on the blog today and its definitely how to start the morning!

One of the best purchase I’ve made in the last year has been my torch. They’re so fun to use on either starting off your charcoal chimney, to adding a little extra char to your blackened fish.

But I mean, how can you NOT own a torch and make some brulee. Even if its a grapefruit brulee!

I mean, I’m not even sure if I really need a recipe card for this?

You sprinkle some brown sugar, and torch away until you’ve got a beautiful candy shell coating.

Crack that grapefruit brulee open with a spoon and enjoy!

But what if you don’t have a torch? Ah, simple my friend. bust out the broiler and let it broil for a few minutes until it’s nice and charred on top.

And without further ado, my super technical recipe card for grapefruit brulee!
