Peach Broulee recipe image
This delightful Peach Broulee offers a lighter, fruit-forward twist on the classic cr&# 195;¨me brûlée. Juicy, ripe peaches are poached briefly in orange juice, then layered with a rich mixture of Greek and natural yogurt. The dish is finished with a sprinkle of brown sugar that is torched or grilled to create a satisfying, crunchy caramelized top. It strikes a perfect balance between sweet and tangy, with the cool yogurt contrasting beautifully against the warm, caramel notes. Ideal for summer gatherings or as an elegant yet simple ending to a dinner party, this dessert requires minimal effort but delivers maximum flavor. Serve it chilled for the best texture contrast.

Ingredients
  • 6 large Fairly ripe peaches

  • 125 gram Greek yogurt
  • 75 gram Low fat natural yoghurt
  • 40 gram Brown sugar
Directions
  1. 1

  3. 3
    Pour the orange juice over the sliced peaches.
  4. 4
    In a small bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt and the natural yoghurt until smooth.
  5. 5
    Spread the yogurt mixture evenly over the peaches to cover them completely.
  6. 6
    Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top of the yogurt layer.
  7. 7
    Preheat the grill (broiler) to high.
  8. 8
    Place the dish under the grill until the sugar melts and begins to bubble and caramelize, watching closely to prevent burning.
  9. 9
    Remove from the grill and let cool to room temperature.
  10. 10
    Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving to allow the flavors to set.

Note

For a special occasion variation, spoon 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of brandy over the peaches before adding the yogurt layer for an adult twist.

Ensure the dish you use is flame-proof and suitable for high heat under a grill or broiler.

This dessert is best served chilled. The contrast between the cold yogurt and the warm caramelized sugar crust is key to the experience.

If you do not have a grill, you can use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar top.
