Flan Ingredients
Method
Flan Directions
- 1
Prepare the caramel
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the granulated sugar. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar melts and turns a golden brown color. Quickly pour the caramel into a 9-inch round baking dish, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden.

Bake the flan
Pour the flan mixture over the cooled caramel in the baking dish. Place the baking dish in a larger baking pan and fill the outer 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 a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool and serve
Remove the flan from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, 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.
