Flan de vainilla con caramelo-Claudia&Julia

Vanilla flan with caramel

If there's a quintessential classic recipe, it's flan. I don't think there's a dessert that's been reinvented more or that deserves more praise than this one. With just three ingredients, you get a true delicacy. But today we'll take it a step further by adding a fourth element to this fantastic equation, to make a vanilla flan with caramel as exquisite as it is aromatic.

Layer cake de manzana

Apple layer cake

Extremely moist and visually appealing, this apple layer cake (apple mille-feuille or layered apple cake) leaves no one indifferent. From the outside it looks like a sponge cake, but inside are layers and layers of sweet roasted apple and, in fact, very little batter.

Flan de coco

Coconut flan

I love coconut. It's something there's no cure for, so rather than hide my little passion I try to make the most of it. One of my favorite uses is in flans and puddings, and today I'm sharing a recipe that turns out perfectly. More than perfect — you get utterly addictive flans!

Flan de leche condensada

Condensed Milk Flan

Condensed milk flan is surely one of the most popular traditional flans. If you haven't made it at home yet, you should know that you've most likely tried it, because with its vanilla-like flavor and how easy it is to prepare, it is often the homemade flan recipe served in many restaurants.

Pan de Calatrava

Calatrava Bread

Related to the family of flans and the puddings, Calatrava bread may be one of the easiest and most rewarding recipes to prepare. Its basic ingredients couldn't be simpler: milk, eggs and sugar, to which a portion of pastry or bread (hence its name) is added as the main feature. Basically, a classic egg flan only with a bonus. Not bad, right?

Tocinillos de cielo

Tocinillos de Cielo (Spanish egg-yolk custards)

When Claudia suggested I prepare a recipe with the Ilsa flan molds, I immediately replied that I wanted to make my tocinillos de cielo. They are such an exquisite and delicate bite that I wanted to show you how to make them at home. And the thing is, whenever I serve them at a gathering, they’re a hit.

Pudin de dátiles con salsa de tofe

Date pudding with toffee sauce

Back in the Second World War, two Canadian officers were staying at a hotel in the northeast of England, where they handed the recipe for a pudding to the hotel's owner; and it makes sense what they tell us about its origin being Canadian rather than English, since the batter is more like that of an American muffin than that of a delicate, spongy English cake. I'm talking about the delicious sticky toffee pudding.

Flan de coco

Coconut flan

You don't think a pressure cooker is only for steaming vegetables, do you? Because far from that, the pressure cooker lets you cook meats until they're tender and excellent in record time, lets you make stews with a fabulous blend of flavors, you can steam fish for a very healthy option, you can make delicious cakes (yes — cakes turn out great in a steam cooker!), and you can also make delicious flans like the one we bring you today, the coconut flan recipe. Among many other things, of course.
