Pumpkin Flan image

I make this fun pumpkin dessert every year for Halloween in my pumpkin-shaped baking dish. You can, of course, make it in regular ramekins for a non-seasonal dessert.

Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (8 ounce) container silken tofu
½ cup pumpkin puree
¼ cup applesauce
¼ cup cornstarch
2 eggs
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 drop orange food coloring
¼ cup 70% to 80% dark chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon honey
2 teaspoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a tart pan on a baking sheet.
  • Combine silken tofu, pumpkin puree, applesauce, cornstarch, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and food coloring in a bowl. Puree using a stick blender until smooth. Pour batter into the tart pan, filling only halfway.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until flan has set, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely before inverting onto a serving plate.
  • Place chocolate in a metal bowl. Heat cream, honey, and butter in a small saucepan until almost boiling and pour over chocolate. Leave for 1 minute, then stir well until chocolate has melted. Transfer chocolate ganache to a piping bag fitted with a small tip and decorate pumpkin flan. Refrigerate until serving.

I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin, but I thought this flan was really good. The texture was smooth and creamy, and the pumpkin flavor was subtle.

This pumpkin flan was a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! The texture was smooth and creamy, and the pumpkin flavor was perfectly complemented by the spices. I will definitely be making this again for Christmas.
