Method

Prepare the Caramel
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add 1 cup of granulated sugar. Stir constantly until the sugar melts and turns a golden brown color. Quickly pour the caramel into a round 9-inch baking dish, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool.

Blend Flan Mixture

Bake the Flan
Pour the flan mixture over the cooled caramel in the baking dish. Place the baking dish inside 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 50-60 minutes, or until set.

Cool and Unmold
Remove the flan from the water bath and allow it to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight. To unmold, run a knife around the edges of the flan, place a serving plate on top, and invert.
