Does anyone have a recipe for flan?? Mexican Custer???

Question

yes,, i do want to make it my self.. from scratch! HELP

Answer 1

This is simple and very addctive! I always double it.

Flan Ingredients:

1 can condensed milk
1 can evaporated milk
4 eggs
1 tbsp almond extract
pinch of salt

Caramel Ingredients:

1/2 cup dark brown sugar
3 tbsp water

First, in a small pan, combine dark brown sugar and water. Stir until you get a thick caramel (about 2 min).

Place caramel in nonstick round or rectangular pan, swirl around and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Next, combine eggs, almond extract and salt and mix. Add evaporated and condensed milk to eggs and mix again. Check to see that the caramel is hardened and place flan mixture in pan.

Place in oven and set timer for 60 minutes. If knife comes out clean when placed in center, it's ready. Place at room temperature or refrigerator until cool. Lastly, invert flan onto large dish and chill for at least one hour before serving. Really good with fresh berries on the side!

Answer 3

actually, unless you are a "do it from scratch" person, you can buy pre mixed flan custard in the Jello section of your supermarket.
