I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my flan turned out very dense and rubbery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I'm disappointed because I was really looking forward to trying this recipe.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The flan was very bland and the caramel sauce was too sweet. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be making this again.

This flan is a bit denser than I expected, but it's still very good. The pumpkin flavor is subtle, but it's there. I think I would add a little more pumpkin spice next time I make it. Overall, this is a good recipe for a classic pumpkin dessert.

I love the combination of pumpkin and cinnamon in this flan. It's the perfect fall dessert. I also appreciate that the recipe is not too sweet. The caramel sauce is a nice touch, but it's not necessary. The flan is just as good without it.
