Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup sugar
½ cup water (and if possible, a few drops of lemon/lime juice to avoid crystallization)
14 oz sweetened condensed milk
14 oz canned coconut milk
5 eggs (at room temperature)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350° F (180° C).
  • In a nonstick medium skillet or saucepan, stir together sugar, water, and a few drops of lemon/ medium and cook over medium heat until sugar is melted and turns into an amber color (about 8-10 minutes). Make sure to not stir or disturb the mixture while cooking! Pour into an 8-inch round pan, quickly swirl the caramel around the bottom and sides of the pan to coat, and let sit for at least 3-5 minutes or until hardened.
  • In a blender, combine sweetened condensed milk, coconut milk, eggs, and vanilla until smooth (and there are no visible traces of eggs), about 30-60 seconds. Pour the mixture into the pan.
  • Prepare the bain-marie (water bath) by placing the flan pan into a 13×9-inch baking pan. Fill the outer pan with boiling water to halfway up the flan pan.
  • Bake for 45 minutes or until the coconut flan is set and slightly jiggly. Transfer the flan pan to a wire rack for about 30 minutes. Then, place in the fridge for at least 4 hours or until the flan is chilled.
  • To unmold, warm the bottom of the pan on a warm water bath for about 3-5 minutes and gently run a paring knife around the edges of the pan. Place a large plate over the pan and invert while holding tightly to unmold the flan.
  • Top with coconut flakes for garnish. Chill until serving time!

Almond Coconut Flans

These Almond Coconut Flans are a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with a creamy almond and coconut custard, and they are baked in a water bath until they are set. The result is a smooth and rich custard that is sure to please everyone.

  • Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better the almond coconut flans will taste. Use full-cream coconut milk and heavy cream for the creamiest custard.
  • Don't overcook the custard. The custard should be set but still slightly wobbly in the center. If you overcook it, it will become tough and grainy.
  • Let the flans cool completely before serving. This will allow them to set properly and develop their full flavour.
  • Serve the flans with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include fresh fruit, whipped cream, and caramel.

Almond coconut flans are a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a special occasion or a simple weeknight treat. With their creamy texture and rich flavour, almond coconut flans are sure to become a favorite in your home.
