FAQ ❓
Can I replace Skyr with another dairy product?
Yes, if you can't find Skyr, you can use plain yogurt or fromage blanc instead!
Why use cornstarch in this recipe?
Cornstarch ensures a smooth, creamy texture, preventing the flan from becoming too dense. It also acts as a binder for the mixture.
Can I replace honey with another sweetener?
Yes, you can replace honey with agave syrup, coconut sugar or white sugar, as you prefer. Honey adds a natural sweetness and a light floral note, but any other sweetener will do :)
Can I add other flavors to this flan?
Yes, you can personalize the flan by adding flavors like vanilla, cinnamon, or even a little orange zest. You can add red berries to the batter if you want. You can also add the topping of your choice: here, we've blended red berries to make a coulis. You can also add melted chocolate, for example.
Can I prepare this flan in advance?
Yes, this flan can be made the day before. Just leave it to cool and refrigerate until ready to serve.
What should I serve this Skyr flan with?
This flan is delicious on its own, but you can also serve it with a red berry coulis or fresh fruit to add freshness and color.
Can I freeze this flan?
Yes, you can freeze the flan, but remember to let it thaw in the fridge before serving.
