Looks like everyone’s zucchini crop is peeking and you can find an abundance in every market and at every farmer’s market. I typically roast zucchini for a quick and easy vegetable side dish. However, I thought I would try something different. This flan features zucchini in a wonderful custard. Perfect with any grilled meat and very easy to prepare. Plan on letting the flan sit for fifteen minutes prior to serving. This enables the flan to firm up prior to cutting.
