4 Milk Caramel Flan Recipe. This pudding has a creamy, silky, and delicious custard topped with a glossy caramel sauce.
Directions:
Caramel Sauce:
- Grease with butter the sides of a 7’’ (17cm) fixed bottom round pan or dish. Set aside.
- Heat the water until simmering.
- Place the sugar in a large saucepan. Stir over low heat until just melted. It can burn very quickly, so be aware!
- Add the simmering water, about 1 tbsp at a time, stirring after each addition, until it forms a golden clear liquid. Be careful, as it will bubble vigorously, and sugar becomes extremely hot when melted!
- Pour sauce on the bottom of the prepared pan. Set aside.
Flan:
- In a large bowl, place the condensed milk, heavy cream, and milk powder. Stir until smooth.
- Add the eggs and whisk until just combined.
- Add the milk and vanilla and whisk.
- Using a strainer, pour the mixture over the caramel sauce.
- Cover the pan with aluminum foil and place it in a larger baking pan. Pour simmering water into the larger pan to a depth of about 1 inch (2,5cm).
- Bake at 350°F (180*C) for 60-70 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let it cool and refrigerate for about 4 hours.
- To untold, run a knife or spatula around the edges to loosen the custard and invert onto a large plate.
Keep refrigerated for up to 5 days.
