French Custard Pie with Apples (Flan Parisien) Ingredients: 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (or cake flour) 2/3 cup white granulated sugar 1/2 tsp salt 5 large eggs 1 cup whole milk 1 cup heavy cream (any dairy whipping cream) 2 tsp vanilla extract 2 medium apples, thinly sliced (about 1/8 inch thick) Directions: Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the eggs, cream, milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth. Chill the batter: Refrigerate the batter for at least 1 hour to allow the ingredients to meld and the flour to hydrate. Preheat and prepare the pan: Preheat your oven to 325°F (170°C) or 150°C if using a fan-assisted oven. Line a 7.5-inch (19 cm) round cake pan with parchment paper, ensuring it hangs over the sides for easy remorval after baking. Assemble the pie: Remove the chilled batter from the refrigerator and stir gently to mix any flour that may have settled at the bottom. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Arrange the thinly sliced apples evenly over the top of the batter. Bake the pie: Bake for 45-50 minutes, checking for doneness by inserting a skewer into the middle. It should come out clean when the pie is done. If the top starts to brown too quickly, lightly cover with foil, ensuring the foil does not touch the batter. Cool and serve: Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes to set. Use the overhanging parchment paper to lift the custard pie out of the pan. Slice and serve warm, or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.

Bourbon Butterscotch Pudding Ingredients: 1/3 cup brown sugar 2 tbsp cornstarch 1/4 tsp salt 2 1/4 cups whole milk 3 egg yolks 3 tbsp unsalted butter (omit salt if using salted butter) 1 tbsp bourbon Directions: Prepare the strainer: Set a fine mesh strainer over a medium mixing bowl and set aside for later use. Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium saucepan, whisk together the brown sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Slowly drizzle in 1/3 cup of the milk while whisking constantly to ensure a smooth mixture. Add wet ingredients: Once the mixture is smooth, whisk in the egg yolks and the remaining milk. Cook the pudding: Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking frequently for 4-5 minutes, until the pudding begins to thicken. When the mixture starts to bubble slightly, reduce the heat to medium-low and switch to stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula. Continue stirring constantly for another 4-5 minutes, scraping the sides and bottom, until the pudding thickens and forms ribbons when drizzled over the surface. Incorporate the butter and bourbon: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter and bourbon. Mix until the butter is completely melted and well incorporated into the pudding. Strain and chill: Pour the pudding through the prepared fine mesh strainer to remove any lumps. Transfer the pudding to a large bowl or individual serving containers. Cover the surface of the pudding with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Chill and serve: Refrigerate the pudding for at least 2 hours until fully set. Before serving, top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
