FLAN DE NARANJA (ORANGE FLAN)



Flan de Naranja (Orange Flan) image

Provided by AnaMaría

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 tablespoons white sugar
½ teaspoon water
5 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (14 ounce) can evaporated milk
4 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 teaspoon grated orange zest

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Fill a baking dish half way with hot water for the water bath.
  • Heat sugar and water in a heavy-based saucepan over medium-low heat; constantly swirl the sugar mixture in the pan until sugar dissolves and turns into a golden-brown caramel syrup, about 10 minutes. Watch carefully, as sugar burns easily. Pour melted caramel into a shallow baking dish and gently tilt dish to coat the bottom with caramel.
  • Mix egg yolks, condensed milk, evaporated milk, orange juice, and orange zest in a large oven-safe bowl; gently pour custard over caramel in baking dish. Cover the flan with foil to prevent a skin forming on top, if you like.
  • Set bowl into the water bath and bake in the preheated oven until until flan has set but still jiggles slightly when moved, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Allow flan to cool to room temperature, then remove foil, and place flan in the fridge to chill, about 2 hours.
  • Run a knife around the edges of the flan to loosen from dish; turn flan onto a rimmed serving plate to release custard and let caramel sauce flow over the flan.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 3h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup sugar
1 wide strip orange zest, very thinly sliced
4 teaspoons instant espresso powder
5 large eggs
1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
3 1/2 cups half-and-half
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat the sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat until it begins to melt. Cook, swirling the pan but not stirring, until deep amber, about 10 minutes. Stir in the orange zest and cook 30 seconds. Pour into a 9-inch-round cake pan; tilt to coat. Let harden, about 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Dissolve the espresso powder in 1 tablespoon warm water in a large bowl. Whisk in the eggs. Add the sweetened condensed milk, half-and-half, vanilla, cinnamon and 1/8 teaspoon salt; whisk until smooth. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into the cake pan.
  • Loosely cover the cake pan with foil (do not let the foil touch the custard). Line a roasting pan with a kitchen towel and set the cake pan on top. Transfer to the oven and fill the roasting pan with hot water, about halfway up the side of the cake pan. Bake until the flan is set but still wobbly in the center, 1 hour, 30 minutes to 1 hour, 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool in the water bath, about 1 hour. Remove from the water, cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 8 hours.
  • Run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the flan; let sit 20 minutes. Invert the flan onto a rimmed plate and unmold, letting the caramel drip out. Cut into wedges.

ALMOND-ORANGE FLAN FOR PASSOVER



Almond-Orange Flan for Passover image

There are few desserts as versatile as Spanish flan, which is egg custard gently baked in a water bath until it can just barely hold itself together. A variant of the French creme caramel, most Latin American countries embrace it as their own. Though many flan recipes start the same way - caramelizing a metal mold with sugar until it's pulled back from the brink of bitterness and ending with a precarious un-molding where it can still go all wrong - in between the possibilities are endless. Cheese, pumpkin, coconut, coffee, pineapple and even melon flans all have their adherents, not to mention the savory varieties. This almond-orange flan, made with almond milk and a strong dose of orange juice and zest, is a popular dairy-free option for Passover. As the custard bakes, the sliced almonds form a light bottom crust for added texture. Dense but smooth and brightened by the citrus flavor, it will be a welcome last bite.

Categories     dessert

Time 6h40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 cups of sugar, divided
1 1/2 cups unsweetened plain almond milk
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup sliced raw almonds
4 large egg yolks
2 large whole eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Zest from 1 large orange

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Pour 3/4 cups of sugar into round metal flan mold. Place over medium heat and carefully move the pan frequently, without stirring, until it takes on an amber hue. Off heat, swirl the caramel so that the bottom and sides are lightly covered. The caramel will be very hot. Set aside to cool.
  • Add the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, almond milk, orange juice, sliced almonds, egg yolks, eggs, vanilla, salt, and zest to a blender and mix on lowest setting until blended.
  • Carefully pour the custard into prepared mold and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Place the prepared mold in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan so that it comes halfway up the sides of the mold. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 60 to 75 minutes until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean though it may still appear wobbly.
  • Allow to cool completely inside the water bath then refrigerate covered at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • To un-mold the flan, run a thin knife along the side of mold. Gently shake to loosen. Invert a large plate over the flan and quickly invert the mold in one motion. The flan will gently drop onto the plate and the caramel will flow out so allow extra space around the flan.

ORANGE-SCENTED FLAN



Orange-Scented Flan image

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     brunch, dessert

Time 2h30m

Yield Eight servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons water
3 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon orange zest
3 eggs
2 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. To make the caramel, combine the sugar and water in a medium saucepan. Use a pastry brush dipped in water to wash down any sugar crystals on the side of the pan. Cook over medium-low heat, without stirring, until the mixture turns a light amber color. Pour into an 8-cup souffle dish and set aside.
  • To make the custard, place the milk and zest in a medium saucepan. Bring the milk to a boil over medium heat, cover, remove from heat and let stand 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, yolks and sugar. Whisking constantly, pour the milk into the eggs. Add the salt and strain the custard into the souffle dish. Let stand 2 to 3 minutes and skim the foam from the top.
  • Place the souffle dish in a deep baking pan and pour enough hot water in the pan to reach halfway up the sides of the dish. Bake until the flan is just set (it will tremble slightly in the center when shaken) and a small knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven and remove the souffle dish from the water. Let stand at least 30 minutes before serving or refrigerate, loosely covered, and serve chilled.
  • To serve, run a small knife around the edge of the dish to loosen the flan. Turn out onto a rimmed serving dish. Slice into wedges and spoon caramel over each piece.

1 ½ cups sifted cake flour
½ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons butter, melted
⅓ cup fresh orange juice
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
6 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 egg whites
½ teaspoon cream of tartar
½ cup white sugar
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 teaspoons grated orange zest

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Have ready an ungreased 10-inch tube pan with a removable bottom. Don't use a nonstick surface pan.
  • Sift the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder and salt into a medium bowl. Form a well in the center and add the melted butter, 1/3 cup orange juice, 1 teaspoon orange zest, egg yolks and vanilla. Beat for 1 to 2 minutes with an electric mixer.
  • In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar until foamy. Gradually add 1/2 cup sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the whites into the batter, then quickly fold in remaining whites until no streaks remain.
  • Pour batter into the ungreased tube pan. Bake for 60 to 75 minutes, until the top springs back when lightly touched and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Immediately invert and let the cake hang upside down until completely cool.
  • Turn right side up and run a sharp knife around the edge to separate the cake from the pan. Remove sides. Run a knife around the center tube and under the cake; remove the pan bottom. Turn the cake right side up on a serving plate.
  • To make the glaze: In a small bowl combine the confectioner's sugar, 2 tablespoons orange juice, and 2 teaspoons orange zest. Spread over the top of the cake, letting some drip down the sides. Let stand at room temperature until glaze has set, about one hour.
