Keto Flan

Cultural Context

Flan, a beloved dessert in Mexico, has a rich history dating back to the Spanish colonial period. Traditionally made with sweetened condensed milk and sugar, this keto version adapts the classic recipe for low-carb diets while maintaining the creamy texture and caramel flavor. It's a popular choice for celebrations and family gatherings, and its modern variations have made it accessible to those seeking healthier options without sacrificing taste.
