Flan is surprisingly simple, delicious, and is one of my favorite desserts to make when my ladies go overboard on egg laying and we have some extra! I can post the recipe as well if anyone is interested!

      Ingredients: 7 large eggs. 1 bar of cream cheese 1 cup of milk 1 can of sweetened condensed milk 1 can of evaporated milk 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract A square of butcher paper 1 large glass pan or casserole dish Place the butcher paper in the pan as a liner Blend all of the ingredients in a blender or with an immersion blender until frothy and pour it into the pan, trimming large chunks of the butcher paper if you have allot of excess. Throw that in the oven at 350° for 1 hour and 30 minutes.

      Allow to cool, flip it and slice. Can be served hot or chilled. I also throw a steel pan with a couple inches of water in the bottom of my oven while it cooks, but that’s optional.

      (I use my chickens eggs so if a few are small, I’ll throw an extra 1 or 2 in)

    I never heard of flan growing up in Bermuda, but when I moved to Dominican Republic I found everybody is crazy over it, like really crazy. I don’t do dessert, but well done my friend

      I’m also usually not the biggest “flan” of sweet desserts. 🙃

      But it’s my husband’s favorite, he absolutely goes crazy over it as well. Not to mention, it’s damn easy to make and uses up eggs when we have extra, and my hens are kicking it into top gear right now.

        Haha are your hens really domesticated? How many do you have? Very interesting. My friend used to have hens in his yard, roaming free, used to give me eggs and he called them “happy eggs” lol. There was also a rooster present, he was definitely happy

          I have 11 hens and a rooster. Im getting almost a dozen eggs a day right now, but that’s not usually the case. Those Lil ladies are spoiled. Definitely happy. I built them a chicken jungle gym i keep adding too and they roam around and get fed a ludicrous amount of veggies scraps from the garden.
