“The main issue with the pressure cooker creme brulees is the top layer of sugar. It had a hard time caramelizing because the sugar absorbed a lot of moisture from the creme custard and became soggy.”

I’m confused by this. Why does the top layer matter in the end? You are using the torch. Am I mistaken? Why would the method of cooking affect that final torch step? Thanks!

Hi Betty,

Thank you for your question 🙂

We haven’t tried using the air fryer lid, but it will probably take a bit longer time.

You can open the lid and check from time to time 🙂

Please take care & stay safe

Hmm… do you think the broil function on the IP Duo Crisp would be sufficient to brûlée the top if a torch isn’t available?

Hi Den,

Yes!! We updated the recipe to the new format recently and they added a 0 to the end 🙂

We will correct it now.

Please take care

Is this an error? If you are using the oven option: Preheat oven to 3250°F.

Hi Maria,

thank you for your question 🙂

Yes, it will be fine with regular milk.

Should be safe to broil the creme brulee as long as the ramekins are oven-safe.

Please take care

Hi there! Just wanted to know if I could use regular milk instead of coconut milk in this recipe and if it would be safe to broil the instant pot creme brûlée in the oven after chilling. Can’t wait to try this recipe!!!

Hi Sharine,

Hope you had a wonderful New Year 🙂
Thank you for your question. Silicone lids will work, but you will probably want to increase the cooking time in general.

Happy New Year & please take care

Is there anything that can be used in instant pot other than aluminum foil? Perhaps a type of lid or parchment paper? I find the taste of the foil bleeds into foods a bit.

Hi Diana,

So happy to hear from you again. Hope you are enjoying the summer weather 🙂

It is a very good choice. The only reason we don’t recommend Ceremonial grade matcha is because it is quite expensive.

Take care & have fun cooking
