A Flan Favorite
Flan is a creamy custard dessert topped with Caramel Sauce and one of our favorite ways to end a Mexican meal! The magic comes from the delicious caramel topping that starts at the base of the dessert until it is inverted and becomes a sweet topping to this creamy custard. We first had flan at a family function decades ago, and although we did not know what it was, we knew we loved it! Besides being a hit in our house, it’s popular in Mexico, Spain, and all over Latin America. Fortunately, you don’t have to travel all over the world and can now enjoy flan at home with our own recipe. This Mexican dessert is easier to make than you think and will hopefully become a new dessert to add to the menu.
