5-Ingredient Caramel Flan | Easy & Creamy Dessert! Ingredients: • For the Caramel: • 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar • For the Flan: • 5 large eggs • 1 can sweetened condensed milk • 1 can evaporated milk • 1 cup whole milk • 2 tbsp vanilla extract Recipe: 1. Preheat & Prepare • Preheat your oven to 385°F (196°C). • Prepare a 7-inch round oven-safe pan for the caramel. 2. Make the Caramel • In a pan over medium heat, add 1 ¼ cups sugar and let it melt and caramelize, stirring gently. • This process takes about 5 minutes until the sugar turns a golden amber color. • Immediately pour the caramel into the prepared 7-inch pan, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. 3. Prepare the Flan Mixture • In a blender, combine eggs, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, whole milk, and vanilla extract. • Blend until smooth and well combined. 4. Assemble & Bake • Pour the flan mixture over the caramel in the prepared pan. • Place the pan in a larger baking dish and fill the outer dish with hot water (about halfway up the sides of the flan pan) to create a water bath (bain-marie). • Cover the flan pan with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour and 5 minutes, or until the center is slightly jiggly while the edges are firm. 5. Cool & Refrigerate • Let the flan cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate overnight for the best texture. 6. Serve • To unmold, run a knife around the edges of the flan, place a plate on top, and flip carefully to release the caramel topping. • Slice and enjoy this creamy, silky flan!
