    I made up some pastry batter to make apple pies but wasn’t thinking about it and didn’t make it sweet, so decided to use the pastry for this flan. I cut the recipe ingredient measure in half and used it to make individual smaller flans. Cooked for the same amount of time and they turned out wonderful

    Tasty, but crumbly! 

    It cooked beautifully but was difficult to cut - solid base, and very crumbly corn! Next time, we might add more egg (to hold it together), and some vegetables for a little more variety.

    I've made this a few times - and it's now a family favourite. So quick and easy to do - and delicious! I haven't had a lot of success with quiches before but the TM pastry is so easy and reliable, and the sour cream just adds another dimension. I usually use 1-2 cobs of corn - but it depends on the size of the cobs. Great way of using up Christmas ham too!
