        The Best Quick and Easy Orange Vegan Creme Brûlée Recipe

        Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

        This vegan creme brûlée recipe is so smooth and creamy. It’s the perfect dessert if you’re looking for a dessert that’s not too sweet and heavy. This recipe for creme brulee dessert is infused with orange zest, to help balance the sweetness.

        This creme brulee orange is the perfect treat to make for a special occasion, individual desserts, with a crackly caramelised top. And if you wanted to make the occasion a little more fancy, blowtorch it, in front of guests!

        Not to mention this creme brûlée is also completely vegan!

        This dairy free creme brûlée recipe was inspired by my individual chocolate puddings Which is a healthier alternative to traditional chocolate pudding as the setting agent used are chia seeds rather than gelatine, this provides the tart with extra nutrients, antioxidants and also an excellent source of omega 3's.

        In this creme brulee easy quick recipe I will be going through how to make these creme brulee gluten free and answering your FAQs such as ‘how to make creme brûlée without cream’ ‘vegan cream for creme brûlée’ ‘how long does creme brûlée last’ and so much more.

        Why it's so great

        A really great thing about this brûlée recipe is how versatile it is. Which is what makes this vegan dessert best. For example, you can make this dairy free creme brûlée into a lemon infused creme brûlée to make it more tangy or a strawberry infused creme brûlée, by incorporating some strawberry purée into the creme brûlée mixture.

        I’ll also be sharing some more flavor variations and mix in’s below. And would highly recommend you check that part of this post out!

        This recipe for gluten and dairy free creme brûlée requires less than 10 simple pantry ingredients.

        Ingredients

        • Coconut cream - If your not a fan of coconut and don’t want to use it in your creme brûlée, I assure you, you can’t taste any coconut!
        • Sugar - I use caster sugar as its a very refined sugar, if you can’t get your hands on any then refined or normal granulated sugar will work well too.
        • Cornflour - this will help thicken the creme brûlée 
        • Plant based milk - you can use any plant based milk, form, soya, oat or coconut 
        • Orange - will be infusing the orange zest into the ..
        • Brown sugar - will be using this to create the caramelised top

        See recipe card for quantities.

        Instructions

        1. Heat the milk, sugar and cornflour in a pan until the sugar has dissolved.
        2. Then remove the pan from the eat and add the coconut cream and orange zest.
        3. Return the pan to the heat and whisk continuously until think.
        4. Transfer the creme brûlée filling to glass pots and set in the fridge for at least an hour.

        5. Sprinkle brown sugar over the creme brûlée and caramelise it using a blow torch.

        Variations

        Simple ways you can change this recipe to better suit your dinner guests:

        Prefer something more fruity ?

        If you’d prefer to infuse berries into your creme brûlée, simply incorporate the purée of the berry of your choice into the creme brûlée.

        Not a fan of orange?

        If you’d prefer a classic creme brûlée without the orange, simply remove the orange zest, and follow the recipe as is.
