A simple flan recipe made with only 5 simple ingredients! It is a showstopper dessert that is sure to impress friends and family. Perfect for any occasion!
I need to shout it from the rooftops – I’m officially in love with Flan! I must admit that I did not eat too many flans. Instead, my family grew up on Tres Leches Cake, Conchas, and Marranos. Lots of bread-y desserts were found in Mexican bakeries. But Flann wasn’t really on my radar until my nephew mentioned how much he loved Flaine (a subtle hint he’s blocking my way). When I knew I had to make it.
So I worked, tested and tested, and finally made the richest, smoothest and creamiest flan recipe ever! Best of all, it is so easy to make and it has officially made me such and such a lover!
What is flower
Flan, or creme caramel, is a creamy custard dessert topped with caramel, popular in Mexico, Spain, and many Latin American countries.
It is known for its smooth and creamy consistency that the custard derives from baking in a water bath, or Bain-Marie or Beno-Maria. Doing this creates steam in the oven that cooks the flour slowly and evenly, keeping it moist and ensuring that the eggs are not overcooked and curled or scrambled.
Black Bean Blender Brownie
The skillet is cooked with the custard mixture at the bottom and top of the pan. After it is cooked and cooled sufficiently, it is inverted on a plate to reveal a rich and golden caramel sauce, which completely covers the top of the flan!
This is truly a magical dessert!
Material in flan recipes
This flan is made with only 5 simple materials which is why I like it so much! Here’s what you need:
Eggs
sweetened condensed milk
Whole milk
vanilla extract
sugar
You will also need a small 7-inch cake pan or a special pan called flanera. I got my phalaris here. It is affordable and perfect! It has an easy locking lid so I don’t need to use foil to cover the top during baking.
How to make flowers
Step 1: Put the sugar in a hot pan over medium heat to make the caramel. Stir the sugar until it becomes hot and starts to brown and cook together. Keep stirring until the sugar dissolves completely and melts into a beautiful golden-brown caramel!
Step 2: Carefully pour the caramel evenly under the flanera or cake pan. Try to work quickly as the caramel will begin to harden in a matter of seconds after it hits the bottom of the pan. Be sure to use a towel or oven mitts as the bottom of the pan will be very hot. Try to distribute the caramel evenly in the pan. If it hardens very quickly and you do not, you can heat the pan carefully by placing it directly on the stove or on the skeleton. This will loosen the stiff caramel slightly so that it can flow to the areas where you need to go.
Step 3: Set the caramel aside and let it cool so that it hardens slightly. While it is cold, mix the eggs together, sweeten the condensed milk, whole milk, and vanilla extracts. Unless everything is covered evenly but try to finish the whisk so that you don’t get too many air bubbles in the mixture.
Step 4: Pour the custard mixture into a stiff caramel-lined pan.
Step 5: Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil, or secure it with a lid if you are using a flannera as I do in the picture below.
Steps 6: Place the pan in a large baking dish and fill the baking dish with water until it reaches halfway to the flan pan. Bake the flan at 350 ° F for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Step 7: Remove the flan recipes pan carefully with a water bath, remove the lid, and allow it to cool to room temperature. Then keep it in the refrigerator and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
Step 8: When you are ready to eat it, remove the lid or aluminum foil from the pan and gently slide a knife along the sides of the pan to loosen it slightly.
Step 9: Place a large plate or pan on the pan and quickly and carefully flip over the pan and plate so that the noose is turned upside down. Pull out the flan recipes pan – if the flan doesn’t come out immediately, place the pan down, and allow it to sit slightly. It will slide out so don’t freak out! Give the edges of the pan a tap or a few squeezes and see what helps.
All that’s left to do is grab a piece and enjoy! I like to serve it with lots of caramel sauce, but you can also serve it with some fresh fruits.
Adaptations
For a citrus twist, mix 1 teaspoon orange jest in the custard mixture.
For a coffee twist mix 2 tablespoons instant espresso powder in the custard mixture.
