Apricot Almond Flan (Flaugnarde)

🇫🇷 France · Limousin

Servings: 6-8 Prep: 10 minutes Cook: 1 hour Total: 1 hour

Ingredients

  • ½ tbsp unsalted butter, for greasing the dish
  • 1 cup (250ml) milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup (50g) sugar, plus 1 tbsp for sprinkling on top
  • 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 1/2 cup (62.5g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 300g apricots, halved and pitted
  • 2 tbsp shaved almonds

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Generously butter an 8-9 inch round pie dish or skillet.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract.
  3. Gradually whisk in the flour and salt until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
  4. Arrange the halved apricots in the bottom of the prepared dish.
  5. Pour the batter over the apricots and sprinkle with shaved almonds.
  6. Bake for 1 hour, until puffed and browned at the edges, with the center set but slightly jiggly.
  7. Transfer to a cooling rack; the flaugnarde will deflate and firm up as it cools.
  8. Serve warm or cool, cut into slices.
