About the Author

Back in 1984, Vickie Hutchins and Jo Ann Martin, next-door neighbors raising their families in the little town of Delaware, Ohio, started Gooseberry Patch. They were two moms with small children looking for a way to do what they loved and stay home with the kids too. They shared a love of home cooking and making memories with family&friends. After many a conversation over the backyard fence, Gooseberry Patch was born.
They put together the first catalog&cookbooks at their kitchen tables and packed boxes from the basement, enlisting the help of loved ones wherever they could. From that little family, Gooseberry Patch has grown to include an amazing group of creative folks who love cooking, decorating and creating as much as Vicki and Jo Ann. Hard to believe it's been over 25 years since those kitchen-table days.
Today, Gooseberry Patch is best known for homestyle, family-friendly cookbooks. They love hand-picking the recipes and are tickled to share their inspiration, ideas and more withyou. One thing's for sure, they couldn't have done it without their friends all across the country. Whether you've been along for the ride from the beginning or are just discovering Gooseberry Patch, welcome to the family!

Recipe

Pumpkin Caramel Flan
Submitted by: Rhonda Reeder from Ellicott City, MD

3/4 c. sugar
2 eggs
2 egg whites
1 c. canned pumpkin
12-oz. can evaporated milk
½ c. honey
1-½ t. pumpkin pie spice
1 t. vanilla extract
½ t. salt

Set an ungreased 8"x8" baking pan in an ungreased 13"x9" baking pan; pour 3/4 inch of water into larger pan and set aside. Pour sugar into a saucepan; cook and stir over medium heat until melted and golden. Carefully pour into prepared 8"x8" pan; lift pan from water. Working quickly, swirl melted sugar around bottom and sides of pan. Return pan to water in 13"x9" pan; set aside. Beat together eggs and egg whites in a medium bowl. Add remaining ingredients; mix well and pour into 8"x8" pan. Bake at 350?degrees for 40 to 45 minutes, until set and the tip of a knife tests clean. Remove pan from water; cool on wire rack. Chill for 4 hours or overnight. To serve, run a small spatula around edge of flan. Holding a plate over pan, invert and shake gently to release. Cut in quarters diagonally; cut each quarter in half to form triangles. Top each serving with a spoonful of caramelized sauce from pan. Makes 8 servings.
