S01E03
Caramel
½ Cup Granulated Sugar
2 Tablespoons of water
Cook in small pan until shiny gold color, do not overcook as it can get burnt pretty easy. Pour over greased flan mold we use a 6” round because we like our flan taller, but you can use a 8” round or a square mold. Set aside. Be carful as pan may get hot with the caramel.
Flan
4 Large eggs (room temperature)
1 can Condensed Milk
1 can Evaporated Milk
115 grams or 4 oz Cream Cheese (room temperature)
1 Tablespoon of Mexican Vanilla Bean paste (Vanilla extract is fine)
1 Pinch of Salt
Pour all ingredients in mixer and blend until smooth and light. Pour over your caramel pre prepared mold. Bake at 325 F on Bain Marie (water bath) for 1 hour or until golden brown on top. Make sure water covers at least ¼ of your flan pan. Let it cool completely and refrigerate in pan at least 2 hours. Unmold by turning over a round semi deep plate. Try it and let’s enjoy it together Around the Table. Buen provecho!

Why didn't I think of that? The little trick of using a spatula to cascade the custard mixture onto the caramel is brilliant.
Not covered when baking and with creme cheese is the magic touch. Perfecto ❤
I first tried flan, While I was living in Mexico. OMG it was heavenly. Thank you so much for this "real recipe"!!
Thank you for the great tips on making Flan! I will definitely be trying this. But please your voice is great on its own without music drowning it out.
I’ve never made a Flan with cream cheese before I’m gonna try that, but I cook mine in an Insta pot, and it turns out beautifully! Saves a lot of electricity plus it doesn’t heat my whole house up!
This is how I use the insta pot:
1.75 qt Pyrex glass bowl, pour the sugar glaze into the bowl and set it to cool, then pour your flan mixture up to 1 inch before the top. Put that on a trivet put one cup of water in your Insta pot and then cook it on regular pressure for exactly 30 minutes and let it cool down naturally after I take it out of the pot I let it cool completely on the counter before I put it in the refrigerator overnight, try it you’ll never go back to an oven again!
Thank you for your comments Donna, we will try the insta pot. Happy Bakes.
We moved to Qatar and my family and I have tried your recipe and we love it. This is what we always use. Reminds us of Abuelas Flan
So happy to hear that we can bring good family memories to y'all. Saludos

Thank you for sharing the secrets from your mother-in-law, you must be a favorite person in her life. Your flan looks so delicious, after working in the garden on a beautiful warming day, I decide to take a nap but after I see your video, I run right back in the kitchen and figure it out we don't have the evaporated milk, so my husband volunteers running to the grocery store to get it and I start with the rest. Can't wait to see it turn out for dinner tonight when our children get back home from work, wish me luck.
How did it go??? Hopefully you were able to surprise everyone. Happy bakes.
Looks great I’m going to make this. There’s one thing I have to say, your kitchen is great!
Thank you!!!! Let us know how it turned out!
Gracias.
My mouth is watering i love flan :)

Anyone else start moving their phone around when he was swirling the caramel? Lol. Or is that just me 😂
😂Yes!! Caramel is magic! Thanks for watching.
Just you. 😂
I’m making it now. Can wait until it’s done 👍🏻
Awesome!! So exciting! Let us know how did it go! 🍪 Thank you!

Look perfec
Thank you!!! Did you try it? Let us know how it goes. Provecho
I have watched so many videos today on "how to make Flan", it's ridiculous!!
And, I must say, this is definitely the best video I've watched on the subject. Oooohhh & the Flan this lovely fella made is beautiful, it's the best I've seen, by far.
And for that lovely fella hosting the video..... 👏👏👏 Excellent!! I really enjoyed the way he spoke to his audience. I think he done a wonderful job of explaining everything.... Overall, this was a great video with a great recipe. I'll absolutely be following these instructions tomorrow. I'm certain it'll taste as good as it looks!!
Thank you so much for your kind words!! Please make sure to share with friends, and stay tuned as we are hard at work for season 2 of Around The Table!!!
Ya great desert.🙏
Good job
I agree but wish audio louder
Cream Cheese Flan! Yum!
My very first flan is in the oven right now! I swirled the caramel way up the sides to hopefully help it is to unmold easily. I forgot the pinch of salt, too. But I won’t sweat that.
So I am going to try this with the cream cheese
I just started baking with my daughter & we can’t wait to make this together. Also at the end of this video after you took your bite we both said ohh yeah & then realized you said it too! It was so funny we had to replay that last part a few times. Thank you for sharing your recipe 🤗
Thank you much! Hope your flan has a ohh yeah moment too! Happy bakes!
Nacho! What up Brother? Nice video.
Provecho!
Since watching your video a week ago I’ve made flan 3 times! 🤣 Mi familia les encanto! Grateful to have come across your video. No comemos mucho pastel para nuestros cumpleaños so este año decidí hacer flan para el cumpleaños de mi papá en Dec 5 y para mi mamá este fin de semana y lo voy hacer otra ves para Navidad ❤
Amazing. So glad you liked it. Muchisimas gracias 😊 Ahora ya puede ser una tradición familiar.
A dear friend of mine, who has now passed away when I was on a mission trip to Mexico, and the state of Quintana Roo taught me how to make flan she did it on top of the stove. I’m gonna make this in her honor.
Hope that it turned out as good as you remember her, it is amazing how you can remember people and places with food.

11:11 Amazing looking!!!
Hay miles de formas de hacer un flan, mi receta es diferente... ❤❤❤
Very nice good recipe 👍 doing faster
Best of luck uncle ap ka channe bhut acha han ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤lots of love 💕 from Pakistan
He never stops stirring his caramel, when he tells you not to!
I just started watching it & he said not to stir it.. it will Cristal.. ( his English) .. then he starts stirring it & doesn’t stop ?
This is how you know he followed another video, and creates “content” of his own with indirect instructions 😂
You are definitely not suppose to stir the sugar never..
@@user-be5xr9zc6pit’s a very minute thing, just follow what he does, simple.
@@juliepelegrino8875it’s not that serious. Stir or no stir, you still get your caramel. Plenty instructional videos here on CZcams and they all stir the sugar around
Li e this recipe. Can it be steamed??? No oven..plz reply. Anyway, will try.
Seems like everybody have a perfect flans
I have never made flan before and I am so excited to try your recipe! Should I unmold it just before serving or do you recommend unmolding a bit earlier and leaving it in the fridge until its time to serve? Thank you
Great question! I was wondering the same thing…
I made it over the weekend for my book club and it was absolutely delicious!! Thank you so much:))
The gloves you used to take out that hot pan it look very nice are they cooking hot pad gloves or construction gloves?
They are regular oven gloves, just need to find the ones that have the plastic at the end. Try Sur La Table
Do you have a recipe for flan that does not use condensed milk please? Thank You
Hi, what's the difference about this flan and the original flan?
I just made it for thanksgiving tomorrow. The caramel was so hard to make lol you made it look so easy. I forgot the pinch of salt 😅
Practice makes perfect. Try it with less heat and take your time. Hopefully it would be easier next time.
Use dulce de leche o cajeta instead
How long do we leave fridge
Could you use a liquor with the sugar?
What kind of flan mold is good?
When I make flan l always line the pan to ensure an easy release.
Me encanta la manera tan sencilla que explicas. Love it!!!
Muchas gracias!! 🤗
Is it possible for you to share where we can purchase the vanilla you used ? Thank you
The vanilla is from Magaya Foods I’m sure they ship nationwide.
Can i cook it via steam?
Can I ask What did you use to clean your oven ? It's so clean.
His oven is immaculate! Looks brand new!
Thank you! Make sure to avoid any dripping disaster, use soft soapy sponge while the oven still warm. If already has build up try a spray de-greaser (do it while warm). Hope it helps.
Did i miss it? How much cream cheese?
Hello I have a question how long is the flan supposed to cool off ?
Hi, sorry for the late response, We like to leave it at least 2-3 hours as it tastes better cold. Happy bakes.
What do you put at the bottom of the pan to keep it for sticking
I'm pretty sure u don't put anything
Hola! After taking it out of the fridge, do I need warm water or anything to soften the caramel so that it comes out better? Or do you flip it out right from the fridge? In my head the caramel would be too hard out of the fridge, but I’ve never tried making it so that’s just a theory 😂. Muchos gracias! 🙏🏽
You don't need to heat it up. Just take out of the fridge a loosen the sides like he did and flip.
@@tammierandall864 thank you!
I can’t believe you cut it with a serving serving utensil haha.
Looked great. I was looking for a recipe of one that is tall, like yours.
I've made flan many times but never with cream cheese. How does it affect the flavor? Can you really taste the cream cheese?
Try it, we love the consistency that it gets with the cream cheese and also the tangy undertones that makes it not as sweet. Let us know how it turns out and if you like it and can taste the difference. Happy Bakes.
I was going to say the comment the same, though it does look really good, I use 6 eggs instead of 4 and get pretty much the same looking texture wise, not sure I want "tang" in my custard flan but of course there are thousands of ways to make flan.
How much cream cheese did you use?
4 oz so half a regular pack. Hope it helps. Happy baking.
What are measurements, size of flan pan, I need to buy one via Amazon. Please I want to make this . Carol
Hi, Carol I used a 6" round cake pan that needs to be at least 4" in height, you can use a regular 8" round cake pan but consider that the flan would be not very tall. Let us know how it goes. Happy baking
8:39 last but not least didn't hear the last of the recipe wheres the pinch of salt??
Bonjour c'est quoi du lait évaporé svp?

There is also a Filipino leche plan version. Ingredients are almost the same except the process of doing it. 🍮
Was the water for Bain Marie supposed to be boiling? At one hour the flan is not jiggly its liquid 4/5 of the pan, only edges look somewhat firm. 😡Not sure how you did it but once pan is greased it wont allow me to cover the sides with the hot caramel. All caramel just falls back to the bottom.
I thought you said don’t stir it .. but you’re really going for it?
You didn’t say,how much cream cheese??
HOW MUCH CREAM CHEESE??
Receita típica do Brasil na versão mexicana. Só muda com o cream cheese.🤨
You said Not to stir a lot,but you kept stirring constantly??
I tried twice to make the caramel but it just turned into a very hard white sugar rock! Are you using a special pan or something? At first I used a small black iron skillet and cooked the sugar/water mix. Everything went just as your video until the mixture began sticking to the side of the pan and then became solid instead of a caramel colored liquid. Then I used a nonstick, le crueset pot. The inside of the pot is white but I think the pot is made of iron. Is that the problem? I wanted to take the flan to a Dia de los Muertes party at 4 pm and it's 1:09 now. Guess I'll just make some of my easy brownies and go. (So disappointed)
Use the same pan, just try not to mix to much until everything is together and sugar-water mix boiling. Then it will start turning in to golden caramel. Some times it becomes solid if you mix to much. You can always also add a little more water. Hope it works.
@@AroundTheTablewithNachoSusana I'll try that! I thought I was supposed to keep it from sticking or something so I probably did mix it too much.
@@bethwatson1765 Use a stainless steel pot or skillet and DO NOT STIR! Only swirl the pan.
@@clbudd Thank you! I'll try that (once I buy myself a stainless steel pan)😄
Jeeze CZcams really wants me to learn how to make flan. I love flan, but I keep getting different suggestions for making it.
almost perfect, but not covering the top while baking I saw at the end created a crusty bottom... not sure if that would add for better experience for some. Anyone prefer to cover it or not cover it? If not covered, why?
It is optional, as you flip it over to serve so it does not make much difference, I like the little crusty bottom as mimic the caramel crust. Happy bakings
Love to make it but the sound went dead
