Flan Ingredients

Method

Flan Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Caramel

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the granulated sugar, stirring constantly until it turns into a golden-brown caramel. Quickly pour the caramel into a flan mold or individual ramekins, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to harden.

  2. 2

    Blend the Custard Mixture

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

  3. 3

    Pour Custard into Mold

    Carefully pour the custard mixture over the hardened caramel in the flan mold.

  4. 4

    Bake in Water Bath

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the flan mold in a larger baking dish and fill the dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the flan mold. Bake for about 50-60 minutes or until the flan is set.

  5. 5

    Cool and Serve

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