Flan
I remember making Flan for the first time,
about 14 years ago, my Freshman year of Spanish I with Mrs. Wolff - the most
awesome Spanish teacher ever. We had a Cinco De Mayo Fest and all had to prepare
recipes. This is what I made, of course I don't remember the exact recipe I
followed that long ago, but it's yummy anyway :)
Ingredients
- 8
eggs
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed
milk
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups white sugar
Directions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F
(150 degrees C). Have ready 9 inch round cake pan.
- In blender or food processor,
or using electric mixer, combine eggs, condensed milk and vanilla and blend
until smooth. In medium
sauce pan, cook sugar, stirring constantly, until it liquefies. When it
starts to turn light brown, remove from heat and pour into waiting pan. Pour
egg mixture over liquid sugar.
- Line a roasting pan with a
damp
kitchen towel. Place baking dish on towel, inside roasting pan, and place
roasting pan on oven rack. Fill roasting pan with water to reach halfway up
the sides of the baking dish.
- Bake 70 minutes in the
preheated oven, or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Remove pan
from water bath and let cool completely, about 1 hour. Run a knife along the
edge of the pan, place a serving plate on top and invert. Serve.
