Today we're going to share a recipe for a very popular dessert in Spain, albeit with a slightly different twist, as it includes our culinary secret, Tétique : A vegan lemon flan.
This is the vegan version of the classic "homemade flan." An ideal dessert for keeping in shape and taking care of yourself, because it has less sugar and less fat than a traditional dessert.
Ingredients for Vegan Lemon Flan Tétique recipe
- 1/4 cup of squeezed lemon.
- Half a cup of cornstarch.
- 1 1/2 cups coconut milk.
- 3 or 4 tablespoons of grated coconut.
- Green dye.
- Lemon zest.
- Brown sugar.
Flan cover:
1 soy or natural yogurt with 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar and a squeeze of lemon. Refrigerate.
Preparing the vegan lemon flan
In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of warm water with 1/2 cup of cornstarch. Mix well and turn the heat to medium, stirring constantly to prevent sticking. After 2 minutes, add 3 tablespoons of brown sugar and continue stirring until thickened. Turn off the heat and add the lemon juice. Continue stirring.
Now gradually add the coconut milk and continue mixing. Taste to see if the sugar is sufficient to suit your taste. Turn on the heat and continue mixing until thickened, then turn off the heat. Add the green food coloring and, if any lumps remain, blend.
Immediately add the grated coconut and lemon zest, mix, and place in a glass or ceramic mold and refrigerate for at least 5 hours or overnight.
To unmold, tap the mold gently to loosen it, then flip it over with a plate on top. Add the yogurt topping and it's ready to serve.
