Instructions

  • 1 - Prepare the Pastry Dough:
    Combine flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Add chilled butter cubes. Rub butter into dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in egg yolks and mix until dough forms. Chill dough wrapped in plastic for 30 minutes.
  • 2 - Preheat oven and prepare pan:
    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 9-inch (23 cm) flan or tart pan with removable bottom.
  • 3 - Blind Bake the Crust:
    Roll out the chilled dough and fit it evenly into the pan. Prick the base with a fork. Line dough with parchment paper and fill with baking beans or rice. Bake for 15 minutes then remove weights and bake for 5 more minutes until light golden.
  • 4 - Prepare the Nut and Honey Filling:
    In a saucepan, combine honey, corn syrup, brown sugar, and heavy cream. Heat gently and stir constantly until sugar dissolves and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla extract (if using) and a pinch of salt.
  • 5 - Add Nuts to Filling:
    Mix chopped walnuts and pecans into the warm honey filling until evenly coated.
  • 6 - Fill and Bake the Flan:
    Pour the nut and honey mixture into the pre-baked crust. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 20 minutes or until caramel bubbles and filling sets firmly.
  • 7 - Cool and Serve:
    Remove from oven, allow flan to cool completely in pan. Release from tart pan and slice. Serve at room temperature for best flavor.
