Summer Raspberry Flan
As the temperatures here in the UK rise, many people have been enjoying BBQ in the warm summer evenings and picnics away at the beach. Not always do you want to have something chocolatey as a pudding after a meal, so today I'm going to share with you my Summer Raspberry Flan recipe.
As the temperatures here in the UK rise, many people have been enjoying BBQ in the warm summer evenings and picnics away at the beach. Not always do you want to have something chocolatey as a pudding after a meal, so today I'm going to share with you my Summer Raspberry Flan recipe.
This pudding is full of flavour, light, and most of all refreshing, enough to satisfy anyone's sweet tooth. What you will need is....
Ingredients
- 6oz Self Raising Flour
- 6oz Margarine
- 6oz Caster Sugar
- 3 Eggs
- 1tsp Vanilla Extract
- Fresh Raspberries
- Raspberry Jelly (Just Under A Pint)
Method
- Preheat oven to gas mark 4.
- Grease a 10" flan dish and place to one side ready for your sponge mixture
- Mix together the self raising flour, caster sugar and margarine.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
- Place in the pre heated oven on the middle shelf for 30 minutes or until lightly golden.
- While in cooking, make up your raspberry jelly. Instead of using a full pint of water, use 18floz to make it slightly thicker.
- Once the flan has cooled, arrange the raspberries however you like. I like to go around the flan to the centre.
- Just as the jelly is reaching setting point (but just spoonable) carefully spoon or pour over the raspberries to completely cover
- Place in the fridge for 30 minutes or until set.
- Serve with clotted cream.
- Enjoy!
So there we have it, my super scrummy Summer Raspberry Flan, perfect for those warm summer afternoon tea parties.
