Parisian Custard

Also called Flan parisienne; is the most delicious custard you can never go wrong and everyone will love it. Flan is very easy to prepare and you can make it all the time. It's basically eggs, milk and vanilla flavors. You can find them in various tastes; with fruits, nuts or even with a crust. The one I've been making is without the pastry. Which my dear husband loves it very much. He can eat them over and over again..

I love the smooth, soft texture it gives you every time you bite it. It's like you're in your own happy place. It's one of my favorite custard. Simple, easy and quick.
