Baked Flan

Recipe View 5 mins Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

Recipe View 10 mins In a small, nonstick saucepan over medium heat, heat granulated sugar until melted and completely dissolved. Continue cooking, swirling the pan occasionally, until the sugar caramelizes into a dark golden brown color. (10 minutes)

Recipe View 2 mins Carefully pour the caramelized sugar into a 1 1/2-quart baking dish, swirling to evenly coat the bottom. (2 minutes)

Recipe View 1 mins In a blender, combine heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, whole milk, and vanilla extract. Blend on high speed for 1 minute until smooth and well combined.

Recipe View 2 mins Gently pour the blended mixture over the caramelized sugar in the baking dish. (2 minutes)

Recipe View 5 mins Place the baking dish inside a larger, deep roasting pan. Carefully pour boiling water into the roasting pan, filling it until the water level reaches about 1 inch up the sides of the baking dish, creating a water bath. (5 minutes)

Recipe View 1 hrs Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the flan is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. (60 minutes)

Recipe View 1 hrs Remove the roasting pan from the oven and allow the flan to cool completely in the water bath. (60 minutes)

Recipe View 4 hrs Once cooled, cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flan to fully set and chill. (240 minutes)

Recipe View To serve, run a thin knife around the edge of the flan to loosen it from the baking dish. Invert a serving plate over the dish and carefully flip the flan onto the plate. The caramel sauce will drizzle over the flan. Slice and serve chilled or at room temperature.
