COCONUT FLAN BY GOYA RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Coconut Flan by Goya Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by á-25393

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup sugar
5 eggs
1 cup GOYA® Cream of Coconut
1 cup GOYA Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 can (13.5 oz.) GOYA Coconut Milk
1/4 tsp. GOYA Vanilla Extract

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F. In a small, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, bring sugar and ½ cup water to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Using a wet pastry brush, wipe off any sugar that sticks to the sides of the pan. Cook, without stirring, swirling the pan, until the syrup turns golden brown, about 10 minutes. Carefully pour the hot caramel into eight 4 oz. ramekins; set aside to cool. In a large bowl, using a whisk, beat the eggs until completely combined. Whisk in the cream of coconut, condensed milk, coconut milk and vanilla until smooth. Divide the egg mixture evenly among ramekins. Place ramekins in a shallow baking dish and place in the middle rack of the oven. Pour in enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins; cover with aluminum foil. Bake until the Flan is set but still wiggly in the center, 1 hour - 1 hour 15 minutes. Using tongs, carefully remove the ramekins from the water. Transfer to refrigerator to cool completely. When ready to serve, gently run butter knife around edges and invert onto serving plates. Garnish with raspberries and mint leaves, if desired.

Time 3h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup whole milk
1 cup coconut milk
½ (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
½ (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 6 (4-ounce) ramekins.
  • Slowly melt sugar in a large skillet over low heat, stirring constantly, until browned but not scorched, about 8 minutes. Divide caramel equally among the ramekins and allow to cool.
  • Combine whole milk, coconut milk, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract in a saucepan over low heat. Stir continuously until it begins to steam, about 5 minutes.
  • Whisk 3 eggs together in a bowl; slowly pour beaten eggs into the warm milk mixture, whisking constantly until the custard is combined.
  • Place ramekins in a casserole dish and fill with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Divide custard evenly among ramekins, over the caramel sauce, about 1/2 inch from the top. Cover casserole dish tightly with foil. Bake in the preheated oven until the custard is set, about 1 hour. A knife gently inserted into the center of a flan should come out clean.
  • Remove ramekins from the water bath and allow to cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours before serving to chill completely. Run the tip of a paring knife around the edges to release the flan. Place a plate over the top of the ramekin and flip to release the flan onto the plate, caramel side up.

COCONUT FLAN



Coconut Flan image

This sweet, creamy dessert uses only the solid coconut cream found at the top of canned unsweetened coconut milk.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups sugar
1/4 cup water
3/4 cup unsweetened coconut cream (from one 13-ounce can coconut milk)
2 1/4 cups whole milk
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
5 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons coconut flakes, toasted (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Set out eight 6-ounce ramekins, and prepare an ice-water bath. Bring 1 cup sugar and the water to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Continue to cook, without stirring, brushing down sides with a wet pastry brush to prevent crystals from forming, until syrup is medium amber, about 8 minutes. Immediately submerge bottom of pan in ice-water bath to stop cooking. Working quickly, pour a thin layer into each ramekin, swirling to coat bottom. (You won't use all the caramel; discard the remaining.) Place ramekins in a roasting pan.
  • Bring a pot of water to a boil. Remove from heat, and cover. Bring coconut cream and milk to a boil in a saucepan, whisking to combine; remove from heat. Whisk together remaining cup sugar, the salt, and eggs in a bowl. Whisking, gradually add coconut mixture. Whisk in vanilla. Pour through a fine sieve into a large liquid measuring cup, and divide among prepared ramekins.
  • Add enough reserved hot water to roasting pan to come halfway up sides of ramekins. Carefully transfer to oven, and bake until just set, 55 to 60 minutes. Transfer ramekins to a wire rack to cool. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 6 hours (or overnight). Let stand at room temperature about 10 minutes before unmolding. Run a thin knife around edge of each flan, and invert onto a plate. Garnish with coconut flakes if desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh coconut milk: Fresh coconut milk will give your flan a richer flavor and creamier texture.
  • Don't overcook the flan: The flan is done when it is set but still slightly jiggly. Overcooking will make the flan rubbery.
  • Let the flan cool completely before serving: This will allow the flan to set properly and develop its full flavor.
  • Serve the flan with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include fresh fruit, whipped cream, and caramel sauce.

Conclusion:

Coconut flan is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy texture, rich coconut flavor, and beautiful presentation, this flan is sure to impress your guests.
