Ingredients
Flan Base
Caramel
Caramel Preparation
1. Make the Caramel
In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir gently until the sugar is dissolved.
2. Cook the Caramel
Once the sugar is dissolved, stop stirring and allow the mixture to come to a boil. Continue boiling for about 10-15 minutes, or until the mixture turns a deep amber color. Be careful not to let it burn.
3. Pour Caramel into Molds
Quickly pour the caramel into a round flan mold or individual ramekins, swirling to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden.
Flan Mixture Preparation
4. Blend the Flan Ingredients
In a blender, combine 1 cup of sweetened condensed milk, 1 cup of evaporated milk, 3 whole eggs, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, and 1 tbs of sugar. Blend until smooth and well combined.
5. Pour the Mixture into Molds
Carefully pour the blended flan mixture over the hardened caramel in the molds, filling them about ¾ full.
Baking
6. Prepare for Baking
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a water bath by placing the flan molds in a larger baking dish and filling it with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the molds.
7. Bake the Flan
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the flan is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool and Refrigerate
Remove the flan from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
Serving
9. Unmold and Serve
To serve, run a knife around the edges of the flan to loosen it. Place a serving plate over the top of the mold and quickly invert it to release the flan. The caramel will flow over the top. Slice and enjoy!
