Claire Saffitz Makes this Iconic French Pastry for the Holidays (Parisian Flan) | Dessert Person During my time in France, I observed that this dish was a staple in every patisserie. Each bakery boasts its own version of this tart, known as Flan Parisian, Flan Pâtissier, or simply a custard tart. Regardless of the name, this pastry is one of my favorite treats to enjoy when I go back for a visit. I hope you give it a try this holiday season, as it stands out as one of the most delicious pastries you'll ever experience. #tart #clairesaffitz #flan Ingredients: All-Purpose Flaky Pastry Dough: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon sugar 1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt or 1/2 teaspoon Morton kosher salt 1 3/4 sticks unsalted butter, thinly sliced crosswise, chilled Custard Tart Filling: 3 1/2 cups whole milk 1 cup sugar, divided Generous pinch of kosher salt 1 vanilla bean, split and scraped, or 1 tablespoon vanilla paste 6 tablespoons cornstarch 4 large egg yolks 2 large eggs 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces Chapters: 00:00 Intro 00:43 Parisian Flan 01:42 Ingredients & Special Equipment 03:27 Make the Pie Dough 12:16 Roll out the Dough & Form the Crust 19:07 Make the Pastry Cream Filling 28:14 Fill the Crust 31:15 Remove from Oven & Let Cool 32:06 Remove from Pan & Chill 33:50 Serve 36:20 Editor's Cat What's for Dessert by Claire Saffitz is out now: https://geni.us/WjcIbfp Dessert Person Online: https://www.dessertperson.com/ Claire on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/csaffitz/?h...
