Recommended Sides
This toddler-friendly crème caramel pairs nicely with some fresh fruits such as apples, bananas, and berries. Some slices of whole-grain toast can also be served alongside, with butter if desired.
For added fun and a family-friendly twist on a classic French dish, insert some jokes in the steps. For instance, in step 3, add a humorous comment such as “Take a deep breath, it’s almost done. As the crème caramel bakes, the smell will make the kitchen roar!”
