Michelle's Freefrom Ginger Cream with Cobnuts

Corn, lactose, milk, nightshade, peanut, sesame & wheat free; can be gluten, soya & nut free

This is a sort of creme brulée – without the brulée. I used the most delicious fresh cobnuts (a type of hazelnut) but if you were nut allergic you could substitute toasted sesame seeds, sunflower seeds or pine nuts.

Serves 4 ginger_creme_cobnuts
