A wonderful fruit dessert, easily made with frozen blueberries if you can't find fresh. The province of Nova Scotia has an abundance of blueberries, hence the name. (Recipe originates with Canadian Living.)

This is the best blueberry flan I've ever had! The crust was perfectly flaky and the filling was creamy and delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

I thought this blueberry flan was just okay. It wasn't as creamy as I expected and the blueberry flavor was a bit bland.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my flan didn't turn out right. It was too runny and didn't set properly.

The blueberry flan was a bit too eggy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with a different type of filling.
