Categories     Cheesecake

Time 1h25m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup white sugar
1 (14 ounce) can pumpkin pie filling
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 (8 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
6 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon allspice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt 1 cup sugar in a pan over medium heat. Stir until it caramelizes, being careful not to burn the sugar. After caramelizing the sugar, quickly throw it in the mold you are using for the flan, and move the mold around so the bottom of the mold will be covered with the caramelized sugar and set aside. It will become hardened.
  • Combine the pumpkin pie filling, evaporated milk, condensed milk, eggs, vanilla, and allspice in a blender, and blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into the caramelized pan.
  • Place the pan with the caramelized flan into a bigger mold filled with about 1 " of hot water.
  • Being very careful not to spill the water, and get burned or have the water get into the flan,.
  • Bake in preheated oven for about 50 min or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, Refrigerate for at least 3 hours. I usually leave it in the same pan if its just for our family and then serve as needed,.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin: Use a small, sugar pumpkin for the best flavor and texture in your flan.
  • Trim the pumpkin correctly: Cut the pumpkin in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and stringy pulp. Make sure to remove all of the seeds, as they can make the flan bitter.
  • Pressure cook the pumpkin: Pressure cooking the pumpkin makes it easy to peel and mash. It also helps to bring out the pumpkin's natural sweetness.
  • Use a blender to achieve a smooth texture: Blend the pumpkin, eggs, milk, and sugar until smooth. This will help to ensure a creamy, smooth flan.
  • Strain the mixture: Strain the pumpkin mixture through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any lumps. This will result in a smooth, velvety flan.
  • Bake the flan in a water bath: Baking the flan in a water bath helps to prevent it from curdling and overcooking. It also helps to create a moist, tender flan.
  • Chill the flan before serving: Chill the flan for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This will help the flan to set and firm up.

Conclusion:

Pressure cooker pumpkin flans are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. They are perfect for any occasion, from a weeknight dinner to a holiday party. With a few simple tips, you can make a perfect pumpkin flan every time.
