Dessert Person with Claire Saffitz Season 3, Episode 10: How To Make Crème Caramel (Flan)
Claire’s been doing some light homesteading with her husband in and around a cabin outside of NYC. The newest members of the household are 4 beautiful hens that give the gift of fresh eggs every morning. Join Claire as she bakes with the eggs for the first time and makes one of the simplest desserts out there — the delicious, eggy, delicate, crème caramel. It’s a custard of eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla, baked over a caramel layer that dissolves and becomes a rich sauce for the custard. It’s a perfect dessert made better by good eggs.

Claire Saffitz Makes Easy Pie Dough & Savory Galette
Part of being a dessert person is celebrating all the possibilities that baking offers -- in this episode, it’s a beautiful savory tart filled with caramelized onion and endive and topped with a fresh, bright salad of bitter and tender greens (this salad pizza is all dressed up). Who said baking can’t be dinner?

Claire Saffitz Makes CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
What makes the best chocolate chip cookies? In Claire’s opinion, it’s a chewy edge, soft and chewy center, puddles of chocolate (in this case, dark and milk), a healthy amount of salt, and, crucially, lots of butterscotch-y flavor from the interplay of vanilla, brown sugar, and brown butter. That might sound like a lot, but it all comes together easily in a couple of bowls, no stand mixer required.

Claire Saffitz Teaches Amateur How To Make Croquembouche

Claire Saffitz Makes Cornbread
Traditional cornbread this is not, but you won’t be overly concerned with strict definitions or categories when you try this savory, slightly spicy, bacony, baked corn [insert name here: cake, bread, pancake, etc.]. It’s a maximalist bakers’ dream, filled with lots of flavorful and textural bits that complement the corn flavor. Best of all, it’s baked in the same skillet used to cook the filling and comes together with two bowls and a whisk.

Claire Saffitz Makes Cheesecake
Heading into spring and summer fruit season, for your consideration: a light, lemony, interesting-in-good-way cheesecake that pairs perfectly with any topping. The key ingredient is goat cheese, which adds a complex flavor, and the key technique is using less filling to keep a reasonable filling-to-crust ratio. See Claire’s tricks for avoiding a soggy bottom and a cracked top!

Claire Saffitz Makes Banana Bread
It might not seem banana bread — a recipe made maybe BILLIONS of times — leaves a lot of room for innovation, but this version from Dessert Person is subtly different than your typical loaf. The almond butter swirl on top and almond butter in the batter adds a savory edge and toasty flavor, while coconut oil and yogurt keeps it tender and moist. Claire demos the very easy, quick recipe that requires little more forethought than forgetting some bananas on your counter until they turn brown.

Claire Saffitz Makes Challah Bread
Honey. Tahini. Challah. It sells itself! But we’ll tell you about it anyway because it’s so good and is a great starter recipe if you’re interesting in getting into bread baking. Challah is a lightly sweet enriched bread in the Jewish baking tradition, and this version is infused with honey, olive oil, and tahini, which gives it a subtle sesame flavor and rich silkiness. If you can braid, you can make challah, and if you can’t, Claire will show you how.
