Flan case, pastry, homemade

A homemade pastry flan case is a pastry shell used to hold a sweet or savoury filling. These recipe-based figures describe the pastry case rather than a filled flan. It mainly provides carbohydrate and fat. Per 100g, it contains 59g of carbohydrate and 31g of fat, including 10g of saturated fat, and provides 2205 kJ of energy.

Carbohydrate and fat provide energy for the body. The energy and saturated fat content are worth noting for people monitoring their intake. Any filling will add to the overall nutrient content, and homemade pastry can vary with the ingredients used. Full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.
