Corsican chestnut flan {sans gluten}
Belle-maman m’a de nouveau ramené de bonnes petites choses d’un voyage en Corse et notamment de la farine de châtaigne ! J’en ai profiter pour réaliser un dessert typiquement corse, le flan de châtaigne.
Voici donc un petit dessert sans gluten juste parfait. Je peux vous dire une chose c’est simplement bon ! Mon seul soucis est de ne pas en avoir fais plus !!!
Corsican chestnut flan {sans gluten}
Ingredients (pour 6-8)
- 1 litre de lait frais entier
- 6 large eggs
- 180 g cane sugar
- 150 g chestnut flour(corse et bio pour moi !)
- 1 vanilla pod
Description
Preheat the oven to 180°.
Heat them 3/4 du lait dans une casserole avec la gousse de vanille fendue en deux et grattée. Boil the water, arrêtez le feu et laissez infuser 10 min.
In a salad bowl, mix together the chestnut flour and the rest of the milk.
In another bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar to obtain a frothy mixture.
Remove the vanilla pod, Bring the milk to the boil again and immediately pour it over the flour-milk mixture.. Mix well as the mixture will thicken.
Then pour this mixture over the eggs and stir.
Put the flan in a bain-marie dish and put it in the oven 50 min.
Book cool 2 h before tasting.

7.11.12With hazelnut milk for example, your flan must be divine too … do you think it could work ?? Yum ! Except that I had enough chestnut flour I think :/
Gourmet kisses !!
Emilie
7.11.12Oh yes with top-notch vegetable milk but perhaps with a neutral milk such as rice or spelled to leave the chestnut as the main “star” !
XOXO <3

Emilie

what a treat
9.11.12The texture of this dessert seems irresistible to me. : I know what I'm going to cook next ! I never thought of adding flour to a flan base : well done for the idea.
Emilie
9.11.12Yes it’s very surprising and there is not at all the floury side when tasting !
You tell me what you thought about it !!!
Merci 😉
