Flan-Tasy Delight
Prep Time: 15 to 25 minutes Yield: 16 Servings
Ingredients
1 cup white sugar
3 large eggs
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
.25g RSO/FSO oil (Available at Thrive)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a medium saucepan heat on low evaporated milk and RSO/FSO. Stir constantly until fully combined, mixture should not boil. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature. Note: rinse and reuse saucepan for next step.
Melt sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat until liquefied and golden in color. Carefully pour hot syrup into a deep 9-inch round glass baking dish, turning the dish to evenly coat the bottom; set aside.
Beat eggs in a large bowl. Add condensed milk, evaporated milk mixture, and vanilla; beat until smooth. Pour egg mixture on top of caramel in the baking dish; place in a deep roasting pan. Carefully pour in enough hot water to come 1 inch up the sides of the dish.
Bake in the preheated oven until just set with a slight jiggle in the center, about 1 hour, checking after 55 minutes. Keep in mind the flan will continue to set as it cools. Remove from the oven and carefully transfer baking dish to a wire rack; cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap to prevent a skin forming. Refrigerate for 3 hours or up to 3 days.
To serve, run a knife around the edges of the dish; carefully invert onto a rimmed serving plate and let caramel sauce flow over flan.
