Best 8 Coconut Ginger Flan Recipes

COCONUT FLAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bring a full kettle to the boil for a water bath.
• Melt 1 cup sugar with a spoonful of water in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat until the sugar dissolves. Do not stir with a spoon. Swirl the pan slightly over the heat, until the sugar turns golden. Pour the sugar into an 8-inch metal cake pan, swirl to coat the bottom and sides. The sugar will harden in about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the coconut milk, eggs, rum and remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Strain the custard over the hardened caramel. Scatter over the lime zest and toasted coconut, and swirl a bit with a spoon to blend evenly. Set the cake pan in a roasting pan and add enough boiling water to come halfway up the cake pan. Bake in the water bath until set, about 40 minutes. Cool. Refrigerate the flan at least 4 hours before serving. When ready, dip the bottom of the pan in warm water, place a large plate over the top of the pan, and invert. The flan should unmold easily with the caramel sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Combine the sugar and water in a heavy saucepan over low heat and cook until the sugar has caramelized to a rich golden brown. Pour the caramel into heat proof flan or pudding cups. Set aside to cool.
• Combine milk, heavy cream, coconut and cinnamon stick in a saucepan and simmer gently for 30 minutes. Remove the cinnamon stick and cool for 15 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk. Beat the egg yolks in a bowl, temper the eggs by whisking in 1/2 cup of hot milk, then whisk in the remainder of the milk mixture. Pour the coconut mixture into a large heat proof measuring cup.
• Put the flan dishes into a baking pan. Place the baking pan on the middle rack of the oven and fill the flan dishes with the coconut mixture. Pour warm water into the baking pan to create a water bath. Do not get water into the flans. Bake the flan for 45 to 50 minutes. Cool completely and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours or overnight. To serve run a sharp knife around the outside of the flan dish to loosen. Invert the dish on a plate and pop out flan. Garnish with toasted coconut, grated lemon zest and fresh blackberries.

COCONUT FLAN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Set out eight 6-ounce ramekins, and prepare an ice-water bath. Bring 1 cup sugar and the water to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Continue to cook, without stirring, brushing down sides with a wet pastry brush to prevent crystals from forming, until syrup is medium amber, about 8 minutes. Immediately submerge bottom of pan in ice-water bath to stop cooking. Working quickly, pour a thin layer into each ramekin, swirling to coat bottom. (You won't use all the caramel; discard the remaining.) Place ramekins in a roasting pan.
• Bring a pot of water to a boil. Remove from heat, and cover. Bring coconut cream and milk to a boil in a saucepan, whisking to combine; remove from heat. Whisk together remaining cup sugar, the salt, and eggs in a bowl. Whisking, gradually add coconut mixture. Whisk in vanilla. Pour through a fine sieve into a large liquid measuring cup, and divide among prepared ramekins.
• Add enough reserved hot water to roasting pan to come halfway up sides of ramekins. Carefully transfer to oven, and bake until just set, 55 to 60 minutes. Transfer ramekins to a wire rack to cool. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 6 hours (or overnight). Let stand at room temperature about 10 minutes before unmolding. Run a thin knife around edge of each flan, and invert onto a plate. Garnish with coconut flakes if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Combine 1/2 cup sugar with lime juice and water. Bring to a boil and cook over medium-high heat until mixture has a deep caramel color. Keep scraping down sides of pan and watch carefully because the sugar will burn easily. Immediately pour into an 8-cup souffle mold and set aside.
• Warm the milk and add the ginger and vanilla. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and strain out ginger and vanilla bean.
• Whisk together the remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar and the eggs. Beat in the milk and mix well.
• Pour the flan into the mold and place in a shallow pan filled with warm water. Bake for 1 hour, 10 minutes to 1 hour, 30 minutes, until custard is set. Remove from oven and cool. Refrigerate when cooled and let set about 3 hours.
• Unmold on serving plate; the caramel will have turned to liquid and become a light sauce. Arrange the papaya slices in the sauce and serve.
