Creme Patissiere

Creme Patissiere is a must of every baker’s recipe book. It’s creamy, sweet, and perfect for a variety of desserts. This is one recipe that everyone should be able to make. Plus, it’s a quick and easy way to get dessert on the table.

And who are we to argue with a staple of France’s pastry tradition?

There’s nothing I love more than a creamy, thick Patissiere, flecked with spots of real vanilla. As a vanilla lover, the more, the better.

It’s great for a quick, easy, and delicious dessert that’s ready in seconds. Serve your Creme Patissiere in other recipes, with some poached pears, to make a fruit tart, or a Creme Brulée. You can have it in the fridge, ready to go a day or two in advance. Perfect!
