Orange Flan
8 servings
about 2 hours 20 minutes total (Active 20 minutes)

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar
  • ¼ cup hot water
  • 2 navel oranges, for zest/strips
  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (12 oz) can evaporated milk
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps

    1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Place sugar and water in small bowl and stir until thoroughly combined. Place in small saucepan on medium and cook without stirring 4–5 minutes until golden. Reduce heat to low; simmer 2–3 more minutes until caramel-colored.
    2. Zest 1 orange (1 tablespoon). Peel 8 strips of skin from remaining orange using a vegetable peeler and set aside.
    3. Spoon caramel into 8 (6 oz) oven-safe ramekins and swirl to coat bottom of each (be careful, as caramel is very hot). Arrange ramekins in large roasting pan.
    4. Combine condensed milk, evaporated milk, whole milk, eggs, and vanilla; whisk until blended and smooth. Divide batter evenly among ramekins. Place roasting pan on middle oven rack and pour about 2 inches warm water into pan. Bake 50–60 minutes until centers are 160°F. Transfer ramekins from water bath to wire rack and chill 1 hour.
    5. Run paring knife around edge of each ramekin, then invert onto serving plates. Spoon any remaining caramel on top of flan. Garnish with orange strips; serve.
