Flan




I finally got to make this flan! So smooth, fragrant, and yummy!
I followed the recipe on http://allrecipes.com/recipe/spanish-flan/ but added a hot water bath for baking the flan.

Ingredients:

Group A:
3 eggs
1 can evaporated milk
1 can condensed milk
1 tbsp vanilla extract

Group B:
1 cup white sugar

Directions:
1. Mix Group A (3 eggs + 1 can evaporated milk + 1 can condensed milk + 1 tbsp vanilla extract) together in an electric mixer or a blender for the flan mixture.
2. Heat Group B (1 cup white sugar) on a stove, medium heat to make caramel layer.
3. IMMEDIATELY pour caramel into ramekins/ ceramic bowls/ glass bowls before the caramel hardens.
4. After the caramel hardens, pour the flan mixture into the bowls.
5. Prepare a HOT water bath in a larger baking pan that can hold all the bowls like this:
*Pour hot water about 1 inch deep. (I used a large casserole pan).
6. Place in oven 350 degrees Fahrenheit and cook for 50-60 minutes. (Mine was done in 50 minutes).
7. Remove from oven and INVERT the flan- may need to run a knife along the edges of the flan to invert it easier. Serve hot or place in fridge.



Next time, I want to learn to make "Impossible" Cake, or Chocoflan!
