Creamy Vanilla Flan with Fruit and Biscuit Base

Step 1: Prepare the Biscuit Base

Crush 60 g of biscuits into small pieces. Place 4 serving bowls on a tray and divide the crushed biscuits evenly among them, forming the base for each dessert.

Step 2: Prepare the Flan Mixture

In a saucepan, combine 500 ml of milk, 3 tablespoons of sugar, 3 tablespoons of cornflour, and 2.5 tablespoons of vanilla flan powder. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and smooth.

Step 3: Cook the Flan

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring continuously with a whisk, until the mixture thickens to a creamy consistency. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

Step 4: Add Yogurt and Pour

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in 120 g of vanilla yogurt until it is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth. Immediately pour the warm flan mixture evenly over the biscuit base in each of the 4 bowls.

Step 5: Chill the Desserts

Allow the desserts to cool slightly at room temperature, then transfer them to the refrigerator to chill and set for at least 1-2 hours, or until firm.

Step 6: Prepare the Fruit Topping

While the flan is chilling, chop the strawberries, one apple, and one banana into small, bite-sized pieces. Place them in a bowl and squeeze a few drops of lemon juice over the chopped fruit to prevent browning. Mix gently to coat the fruit.

Step 7: Assemble and Serve

Once the flan is set and thoroughly chilled, remove the bowls from the refrigerator. Top each serving generously with the prepared fresh fruit mixture. Serve cold and enjoy your delicious dessert.

• Ensure the flan mixture is whisked continuously while cooking to prevent lumps.

• Chill the dessert for at least 1-2 hours for optimal setting and flavor.

• Adjust the amount of sugar according to your preference and the sweetness of the fruits.

• Use different types of biscuits for the base, such as digestive biscuits or chocolate cookies.

• Experiment with other fruits like kiwi, mango, or berries.

• Add a drizzle of honey or chocolate syrup over the fruit topping for extra sweetness.
