Flan, Custard, Creme Brulee….  by any name it is a light and delicious end to any meal.  Or a snack.  Or even for breakfast.  It is eggs, after all.

This recipe uses goat’s milk which gives it a rich and creamy texture.

Heat 1/2 cup sugar and goat’s milk in a sauce pan until it boils.  Temper the eggs with a little of the milk mixture stirring constantly.  Pour the egg mixture into the saucepan stirring constantly so the eggs don’t harden.  Turn the heat off and pour the custard into the baking dish.

 

Place the baking dish into a larger dish with hot water.  This goes into a 350 degree F oven for 35-45 minutes.

 

It will come out firm.  Cool completely before turning out onto a serving dish.  Serve chilled.
