Ingredients
8 Servings
- 5 eggs
- 400 ml milk
- 200 g sugar
- 400 ml sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Step 2
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar until it becomes golden brown and caramelized. Carefully pour the caramel into a flan mold or baking dish, tilting to coat the bottom evenly.
Step 3
In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the blended mixture over the caramel in the flan mold.
Step 5
Place the flan mold in a larger baking dish and fill the larger dish with hot water to create a water bath.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the flan from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Step 8
Run a knife around the edges of the flan to loosen it, then invert it onto a serving plate. Serve and enjoy!
