Looks great Amy, congratulations. Recipe looks long and daunting. Was it? Looks relish so am very tempted to give it a go when the wether cools down.

Thanks ladies, I'm absolutey chuffed :D :D

Looks great Amy, congratulations. Recipe looks long and daunting. Was it? Looks relish so am very tempted to give it a go when the wether cools down.

It took a long time for me today MEP, but mainly because I was trying to work around the carpenter in the kitchen :-)) If he was working near the oven I didn't want to put my tart in there in case he was still working there when I needed to get it out. Also, I didn't prepare my fruit until mid morning, and it needs to be room temperature so I had to wait quite a while for it to cool! It would be more time efficient to prepare the fruit the day before making this tart. That would cut down a fair bit of "waiting around" time.
But the recipe is really easy ;) The hardest thing for me was lining my pan with pastry, as I don't cook with it very often, but anyone who uses pastry regularly wouldn't have that problem :)

Well, just have this flan in the oven now and I can't wait to try it.
I cheated though  ;D
I was actually making mini quiches and had a sheet and a half of frozen shortcrust pastry left over and  a glut of apples in the fridge so I thought Apple Flan!!!! :D
The almond mixture took about 2 mins to make and I just peeled and cored the apples and didn't bother about stewing them so all in all it was super quick!!!!! ;D
Will get back to you with my cheat's verdict shortly.

Can't wait to hear how it goes Tam :) It will be handy to know if there is a "cheat" way of making this! ;D
