Here I am with a new flan, but colorful and summery this time since it is a blueberry flan! I made the cream with 100% fruit blueberry puree; be careful, depending on the brand you use, some contain sugar, so you will need to adjust the recipe accordingly. As often, I was largely inspired by Julien Delhome's recipe, the best in my opinion after trying many. The result is a creamy and fruity flan, slightly tangy and more original than a vanilla flan if you want to change things up 😉
