Flan Ingredients

Method

Flan Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Caramel

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the granulated sugar and water. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves, then stop stirring and let it cook until it turns a golden amber color. Be careful not to burn it.

  2. 2

    Coat the Flan Mold

    Quickly pour the caramel into a round flan mold or individual ramekins, swirling to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden.

  3. 3

    Blend the Flan Mixture

    In a blender, combine the eggs, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and well combined.

  4. 4

    Pour Mixture into Mold

    Pour the flan mixture over the set caramel in the mold.

  5. 5

    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 until it reaches halfway up the sides of the flan mold. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until set.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the flan from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. To serve, run a knife around the edges, invert onto a plate, and enjoy!
