-
1/4 tsp liquid stevia

DON'T HAVE A KITCHEN TORCH?:
You can get yourself an inexpensive little one here: https://amzn.to/2CSGQH6
OR you can just use the broil setting on your oven and put these babies in there on the very top rack as close to the heating element as you can get them, then watch them LIKE A HAWK because they will burn quickly.
KETO SWEETENERS OUTSIDE OF USA:
As of 2018 it seems that allulose is not easily available outside of the USA, so try tagatose (almost identical to allulose) which is available on iHerb in most countries, linked below!

Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients together until the sweetener has dissolved, then strain out any egg yolk membrane bits and divide up the custard between 6 oven-safe ramekins. Bake these in a water bath in an oven set to 300F / 150C for about 35 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, then chill in the fridge for at LEAST 4 hours.
2. Once chilled, sprinkle the last 1/4 cup allulose evenly over top the custards, then use either a kitchen torch or the broil setting on your oven to caramelize the sweetener. Let cool for 5-10 minutes to let the sweetener harden, then serve immediately.
