Ingredients

For the Flan
  • 2 cans condensed milk 600 ml
  • 480 ml whole milk
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 yolk
Caramel Sauce
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/3 cup boiling water

Instructions

Make the Custard:
    Cup of Yum
  1. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and condensed milk until smooth.
  2. Let the mixture rest in the fridge to allow bubbles to pop, ensuring a smooth texture.
Make the Caramel Sauce
  1. In a medium-sized pan, melt sugar over low heat until it turns a light amber color.
  2. Carefully add water to the caramel. It will bubble and some parts may harden, but this is normal. Continue stirring until smooth.
  3. Pour the caramel into a bundt pan, swirling to coat the bottom and sides. Let it cool.
Assemble the Pudim
  1. Preheat the oven to 320°F (160°C).
  2. Pour the custard through a sieve into the caramel-coated bundt pan.
  3. Cover with foil. Place the bundt pan in a roasting pan and place the roasting pan in the oven. Pour hot water into the roasting pan, reaching halfway up the sides of the bundt pan.
Bake
  1. Bake for about 1 to 2 hours . Do not increase the heat to avoid bubbles.
  2. Your flan is ready when it jiggles without ripples, the top is not wet, and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Refrigerate
  1. Let it cool for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Run a knife around the edges before refrigerating.
  2. Chill in the fridge for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
Unmold and Serve
  1. Place the bundt pan over hot water or an open flame for about 30 seconds to 1 minute to melt the caramel.
  2. Wiggle the pan to ensure the pudim is loose.
  3. Run a knife around the edges again. Place a large, rimmed plate over the bundt pan and carefully flip it over. Serve and enjoy!
