Breakstone's Holiday Showdown {Dessert Recipe: Baked Apple Brulee} (2024)

Jump to Recipe -

Part three of the Breakstone’s Holiday Showdown had us creating a delicious holiday dessert recipe featuring Breakstone’s sour cream.

I love dessert and I especially love over indulging during the holidays, but sometimes it just feels like there is too much food all the time. I kept this in mind when I created my holiday dessert recipe and decided to go with something that isn’t overly heavy and won’t weigh you down at the end of the holiday meal.

Baked Apple Brulee is a dessert with tender, sweet apples and a caramelized sugar and Breakstone’s sour cream sauce. It isn’t your traditional holiday dessert, but I think that this year can be all about starting new traditions, don’t you think?

Baked Apple Brulee

A delicious, creamy, unexpected apple dessert.

Ingredients

  • Recipe: Baked Apple Brulee
  • 3 large Golden Delicious Apples
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup Breakstone’s Sour Cream
  • 4 heaping tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions

  • Peel, core and cut apples into 1/2-inch-thick slices.

  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add apples; sauté 9 minutes or until apples are just tender.

  • Stir in sugar and cinnamon. Cook for 1 minute or until sugar melts.

  • Transfer apples to 4, individual 8-ounce ramekins. Top each ramekin with ¼ cup sour cream then 1 heaping tablespoon of brown sugar (evenly distributed over the top)

  • Broil on high 4 inches from the heat for 5-8 minutes or until bubbly and sugar is caramelized.

    I do like the fact that this is a lighter dessert. After the “groan-fest” we call Christmas dinner this would be very welcome.
