Ingredients
Ingredient | Quantity |
---|---|
Sugar | 1 cup |
Manjar (milk caramel) | 1 jar (380 g) |
Eggs | 8 large |
Milk | 1 liter |
Extra Sugar | 1/2 cup |
Instructions
-
Prepare the Caramel: In a skillet, add a bit of sugar. As it begins to melt, gradually incorporate the entire cup of sugar. Stir continuously over medium heat until it forms a golden caramel. Carefully pour the caramel into a 24 cm mold (with a central hole) or another mold of your choice, ensuring an even coating on the bottom.
-
Cool the Mold: Allow the caramel-coated mold to cool in a safe spot while you prepare the flan mixture.
-
Make the Flan Mixture: In a mixing bowl, beat the manjar until smooth. Gradually add the eggs, the 1/2 cup of sugar, and the milk, mixing until well combined. When transferring the mixture to the prepared mold, use a strainer for a smooth texture.
-
Set Up for Baking: Place the filled mold into a larger baking dish filled with cold water to create a bain-marie (water bath).
-
Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and bake the flan for approximately 1 hour, or until it is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
-
Cool in Oven: For best results, turn off the oven and let the flan cool inside, which helps prevent cracking.
-
Chill the Flan: Once the mold is completely cool, refrigerate it until you are ready to serve.
-
Serve: Carefully unmold the flan onto a serving plate, allowing the caramel to drizzle over the top. Enjoy this delightful treat with family and friends!
