Banana Flan Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by Spookie

Number Of Ingredients 19

TOPPING:
4 ripe bananas
1/2 cup apricot jelly
FILLING:
5 egg yolks
1 egg
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla paste, or extract)
1/4 cup of cornstarch
Pinch of salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
PASTRY:
6 ounces sugar
14 ounces butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla paste
1 pound all purpose flour

Steps:

  • PASTRY: In a food processor add the sugar, butter, egg and vanilla paste. Pulse until smooth and then add the flour. Tip out onto a floured surface and mix to form a smooth dough. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Roll out the pastry to about ¼ inch thick and line a 9 inch flan ring. Refrigerate for about 45 minutes. Blind bake using baking beans to hold the shape of the paste until the pastry shell is firm and golden brown. Remove from the oven, remove the baking beans and set aside. FILLING: In a heavy saucepan bring the milk and cream to the boil. Put the rest of the ingredients in a large bowl and whisk together. Pour the milk over the egg mixture and whisk and when the milk is incorporated pour the whole contents of the bowl back into the pan and return to the heat. Continue whisking the pastry cream until it thickens (about 4 minutes) and then remove from the heat and spoon into the baked pastry shell. Slice the bananas into ¼ inch discs and arrange neatly on top of the warm filling. Bring the apricot jelly to a boil in a small pan and brush over the top of the bananas.

The flan was a bit dense, but it had a nice flavor. I think I'll try baking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

This flan was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try making it again with less sugar next time.
