Description
Crème caramel is a delicious flan dessert made with five ingredients.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup white sugar
- 8 whole eggs
- 28 ounces canned condensed milk
- 28 ounces whole milk (use the condensed milk cans to measure it)
- ⅛ cup white sugar
- 2 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- In a saucepan, add the white sugar and water. Bring to a boil without stirring. Once it turns medium gold, pour it into a cake pan and swirl to coat. Pre-heat the cake pan for extra time.
- Add the eggs, white sugar, condensed milk, whole milk, and vanilla extract in a blender. Pulse on high until combined.
- Pour the liquid mixture into the caramel-lined cake pan. Wrap aluminum foil tightly on top, pressing the edges firmly.
- Place the cake pan into a pan with high edges. Pour water until it reaches 50% up the side of the cake pan. Bake at 350 ℉ (175 ℃) for 75 minutes.
- Remove the cake pan from the oven and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours. Once cold, remove the foil. Place a large flat surface on top and flip the flan 180 degrees. If stuck, run a knife around the edges to loosen.
Notes
- Ensure the caramel does not harden before coating the pan.
- Pre-heating the cake pan can help with caramel swirling.
- Allow sufficient refrigeration time for best results.
