Flan Ingredients
Method
Preparation Steps
- 1
Make the Caramel
In a saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to high and boil without stirring until the mixture turns a deep amber color. Remove from heat and quickly pour it into a flan mold or individual ramekins, tilting to coat the bottom evenly.

Prepare the Flan Mixture
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.

Bake the Flan
Pour the flan mixture over the set caramel in the mold. Place the mold in a larger baking dish filled with hot water (water bath). Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 50-60 minutes, or until set. The flan should jiggle slightly in the center.

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 serving plate, and drizzle with any remaining caramel sauce.
