This is yummy just as is, but for a change of pace you can exchange the roquefort and apples for pears and gorgonzola!!

Caramel:
1/2-c. apple cider vinegar
1/2-c.OJ
1/2-c. sugar

Apples and custard:
2-granny smith apples
2-Tab. butter
10-oz. cream
2-eggs
pinch nutmeg
pinch salt and pepper
4-oz. Roguefort cheese,crumbled/grated

Garnish
toasted walnuts or pecans
fresh apple slices

To make caramel combine vinegar,OJ and sugar in pan,cook on med heat til thickened and brown. While caramel is still warm but not hot hot hot hot, coat 6-8.oz. custard molds with 1-1/2 Tab. of the caramel. If caramel gets to thick,add a little water,re-warm and stir til smooth ,
Peel and slice apples and saute in the butter.Line molds with sauteed apples and top with the cheese. Mix well the cream,eggs,nutmeg,salt and pepper. Cook over simmering water til slightly thick and then add rest of cheese.
Fill molds and bake at 325f, in water bath covered either with buttered parchment or waxed paper for 35-45 min til set. Test the flan with sharp knife to see if set. Serve with toasted nuts and apple slices...
enjoy,
kadesma:)
