Preparation: 15 minutes
Cooking: 60 minutes
Total: 75 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. In a small saucepan, melt the sugar over medium heat until it turns into a golden caramel. Pour the caramel into a flan mold or individual ramekins, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.

  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  4. Pour the egg mixture into the caramel-coated mold or ramekins. Place them in a larger baking dish and fill the dish with hot water to create a water bath.

  5. Carefully transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until the flan is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.

  6. Remove the flan from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flan to fully set.

  7. To serve, run a knife along the edges of the mold or ramekins, then invert onto a serving plate, allowing the caramel to drizzle over the flan.
