Caramel
Flan Mixture
Method
Caramel Preparation
- 1
Prepare the caramel
In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of water. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Stop stirring and allow the mixture to boil until it turns a golden amber color. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Once ready, quickly pour the caramel into a round flan mold or a loaf pan, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden.

Mix the flan ingredients
In a blender, combine 1 can of sweetened condensed milk, 1 can of evaporated milk, 3 large eggs, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Blend until smooth and well combined, about 1-2 minutes.

Pour into the mold
Once the caramel has hardened, carefully pour the flan mixture over the caramel in the mold. Ensure that the caramel is completely covered.

Bake the flan
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the flan mold in a larger baking dish and fill the baking dish with hot water halfway up the sides of the flan mold. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the flan is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool and serve
Remove the flan from the water bath and allow it to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. To serve, run a knife around the edges of the flan, place a serving plate on top of the mold, and invert to release the flan. The caramel will flow over the top.
