Preparation Method :

To make the pastry dough, put the flour, sugar and spice in a bowl and mix well.
Add the margarine in pieces and rub into the flour until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
Add the beaten egg and mix to firm dough. Turn out on to a lightly floured surface and knead lightly. Cover and chill in the refrigerator until required.
To make the topping, put the orange slices in a pan and simmer for about 30 minutes until the peel is tender. Drain.
Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Roll out on a lightly floured surface and use to line individual flan rings, about 4 inches in diameter.
Alternatively, roll out 4 inch circles and place on a baking sheet. Line the dough with foil, then fill with baking beans or rice.
Bake in a preheated moderately hot oven for 15 minutes, and then remove the beans or rice and foil.
To make the filling, put the egg, almonds and fructose in a bowl and beat well to mix.
Spread in the bottom of the flan cases, and then arrange the orange slices on top, overlapping each other.
Spoon over the honey. Bake the flans in a moderate oven for 20 minutes.
