Time 3h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup whole milk
1 cup coconut milk
½ (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
½ (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 6 (4-ounce) ramekins.
  • Slowly melt sugar in a large skillet over low heat, stirring constantly, until browned but not scorched, about 8 minutes. Divide caramel equally among the ramekins and allow to cool.
  • Combine whole milk, coconut milk, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract in a saucepan over low heat. Stir continuously until it begins to steam, about 5 minutes.
  • Whisk 3 eggs together in a bowl; slowly pour beaten eggs into the warm milk mixture, whisking constantly until the custard is combined.
  • Place ramekins in a casserole dish and fill with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Divide custard evenly among ramekins, over the caramel sauce, about 1/2 inch from the top. Cover casserole dish tightly with foil. Bake in the preheated oven until the custard is set, about 1 hour. A knife gently inserted into the center of a flan should come out clean.
  • Remove ramekins from the water bath and allow to cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours before serving to chill completely. Run the tip of a paring knife around the edges to release the flan. Place a plate over the top of the ramekin and flip to release the flan onto the plate, caramel side up.

My flan didn't come out as smooth as I hoped. I think I overcooked it slightly.

This flan is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I added a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the flan batter for a little extra flavor.

I found that this recipe made a lot of flan, so I halved the recipe and it still made plenty.

This flan can be made ahead of time and chilled, which makes it a great option for parties or potlucks.

Be sure to use full-fat coconut milk for the best flavor and texture.

This flan is a bit more time-consuming to make than some other recipes, but it's definitely worth the effort.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed this flan. The coconut flavor is subtle and not overpowering.

The caramel sauce is the perfect finishing touch to this flan. It's rich and decadent, and it really takes the dessert to the next level.
