Pumpkin Flan - Flan de Calabaza

Wednesday October 7, 2009

flanAlthough Halloween isn't exactly a Caribbean holiday, you can still serve Latin inspired cuisine at your next Halloween or Fall Harvest gathering. Try this recipe for pumpkin flan (flan de Calabaza), which is prepared using West Indian Pumpkin (a type of squash). But, don't be fooled! This custard is sweet, smooth and delicious. You can easily change up this recipe by substituting a pie pumpkin in place of the calabaza and use pumpkin pie spice in place of the cinnamon.
