Ube Flan

Purple yam or ube not only has pleasant color but it is deemed to have an amazing nutritional value, lots of vitamins and minerals. So I thought of incorporating it to another classic flan recipe and it turned out really yummy. My kids love it and even paired it with vanilla ice cream. It makes it even more yummier!
