Flan Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
- 1
Make the Caramel
In a saucepan over medium heat, add the granulated sugar. Allow the sugar to melt and turn golden brown, swirling the pan occasionally to ensure even cooking. Once it's caramelized, quickly pour the caramel into a round baking dish, tilting the dish to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden.

Combine and Bake
Pour the flan mixture over the hardened caramel in the baking dish. Place the baking dish in a larger baking pan and fill the larger pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the flan dish. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 50-60 minutes, or until set.

Cool and Serve
Once baked, remove the flan from the oven and let it cool at room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. To serve, carefully invert the flan onto a serving plate, allowing the caramel to drizzle over the top.
