Ingredients
3
cups
Whole Milk
7
eggs
3/4-1
cup
Sugar
(Adjust it according to taste)
1
tsp
Vanilla Extract
(Optional but adds to the flavor)
Instructions
Pre-Heat the oven to 350 F or 180 C.
Warm the milk.
In a high speed blender add the eggs, vanilla and sugar. Slowly add the milk. Blend
Either distribute the mixture into 6 ramekins, a baking pan or flan mold.
Put the ramekins/ glass bowl/flan mold in a pan and add enough boiling water to come halfway up to the sides of the ramekins/mold.
Bake covered for 45-60 mins. You know its done when a knife or a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Remove from the water bath and let it chill, covered for at least 8 hours.
To unmold, simply run a knife around the inside of ramekins/bowl. Place a plate on top, invert, and the flan will come sliding out.
Serve immediately.
Recipe Notes
Whether you use ramekins, mold or simple bakeware, the result will be the same.
Temper the eggs, this will prevent them from curdling.
Sugar quantity is adjustable. If you like more sweet dessert add more, if less than 3/4 cup is sufficient.
You can also make this flan using Stevia or Agave or Maple Syrup.
It is normal for the knife to come out clean but the center to feel a bit jiggly.
Serve it as is or with caramel sauce, whipped cream or fruits.
