Leche Flan



INGREDIENTS:
3 egg yolks
2 whole eggs
1 can evaporated milk
1 can condensed milk
1 tsp vanilla

Caramel:
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup water

Caramelize sugar. To do this, add the water and sugar. Over low heat, stir constantly until it turns into a warm caramel color.

In the meantime, using a soft rubber scraper, blend the eggs gently.
Add condensed milk, blend well.
Slowly add evaporated milk, followed by vanilla.

Once the caramel is done, pour into the bottom of the dish. I prefer tiny glass dishes. Beat the egg mixture for a minute, enough to mix everything. Strain the egg and milk mixture onto the pan with caramel.

Cover the dishes/pan with foil.

Bake at 350F for 30 minutes using a water bath. Remove from oven. Cool then chill.
Turn the mold upside down when serving for the perfect look.

Enjoy!
