COCONUT FLAN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place the sugar in a nonstick skillet, and slowly melt over low heat without stirring. Shake the pan by it's handle to mix, but do not stir with a spoon. When the sugar has melted, pour into a 3 quart glass baking dish, coating the bottom.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour in the condensed milk, evaporated milk, coconut milk, whole milk, and vanilla; mix until well blended, about 2 minutes. Pour the egg mixture over the sugar in the pan. Place the pan inside of a larger dish and set in the oven. Fill the outer pan with water to 1 inch deep.
• Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove the flan from the water bath, and refrigerate until cold, 4 hours to overnight.
• To serve, run a knife around the edges of the dish to loosen the flan, then invert onto a serving dish.

FLAN DE COCO (COCONUT FLAN)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 390 F/200 C.
• in a saucepan, pour water, add sugar and bring to boil. Once the caramel turns into a golden color, pour it into the bottom of a 9-inch/23 cm pie pan and let it cool down.
• To make the custard, in a separate bowl, add whole eggs and brown sugar and whisk with a hand whisk. Add evaporated milk and combine. Add sweetened condensed milk and cold water, whisk again. Finally, add coconut and mix.
• Pour the preparation into the pie tin, over the caramel. Place the tin inside a large frying pan, bring on the oven rack, and carefully add hot water. The water level should reach about halfway up the flan tin. Bake the flan for 30 to 35 minutes minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and set it aside to cool at room temperature in the water bath. Then remove the flan pan.
• Once the flan is cool, slide a knife blade between the custard and the mold. Then place a serving plate on top of the mold and flip the flan quickly using a sharp move. The flan will be covered with caramel on top, while the coconut forms a biscuit-like base.

COCONUT FLAN RECIPE

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!

Steps:

• Make caramel:
• Bring sugar and water to a boil in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved, then wash down any sugar crystals from side of pan with a pastry brush dipped in cold water. Boil, without stirring, swirling pan occasionally so caramel colors evenly, until dark amber.
• Immediately pour into ramekins and swirl so caramel coats bottom of each, then put ramekins in a large roasting pan.
• Make flan:
• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
• Blend 2 cups milk with remaining flan ingredients in a blender until smooth, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl and stir in remaining 1 1/2 cups milk, then divide among ramekins.
• Bake flan in a water bath until just set but still wobbly in center, 1 to 1 1/4 hours.
• Remove ramekins from water bath and cool slightly on a rack, at least 15 minutes (flan will continue to set as it cools).
• Just before serving, run a thin knife around each flan, then invert onto plates.

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.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix together coconut flakes and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon on a sheet tray and toast coconut until edges are golden, stirring occasionally. In a small saucepan on medium heat, melt 1/2 cup of the sugar until it becomes a golden brown caramel. Working quickly and with purpose, before the caramel hardens, pour the syrup into the pie plate, tilting the plate to completely cover the bottom. In another small saucepan, bring the coconut milk and evaporated milk to a simmer. In a large bowl combine the remaining sugar, cinnamon, eggs, salt, and vanilla. Pour a little of the milk mixture into the bowl and whisk well to temper the eggs. Whisk in a little more milk, then pour the entire egg mixture into the pot. Strain custard then pour into pie pan. Place pie pan inside a roasting pan. Fill pan with hot water to about an inch up the side of the pie pan. Bake until the center sets, about 45 to 50 minutes. Remove custard from oven and let cool 1/2 hour in the water bath. To serve, invert custard onto a serving plate. Top with toasted coconut and slice into wedges.

Steps:

• Using a hammer and a carpenter's nail, pierce the eyes of the coconuts and make holes about 2 inches deep. Drain liquid and reserve.
• Using a hammer, split coconuts and remove meat from shell. Peel the brown skin from the coconut meat. Break meat into pieces, rinse and grate finely.
• Add enough water to reserved coconut liquid so that it measures 3 1/2 cups. Bring liquid to a boil and add grated coconut. Drain coconut into a strainer, pressing to extract the liquid into a bowl.
• Bring 1 cup of water to a boil and add to the coconut in the colander, again pressing to extract the liquid. Discard the coconut.
• In a medium saucepan, combine cornstarch, sugar, salt and vanilla. Whisk in coconut milk and blend well. Cook on moderate heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until mixture thickens. Reduce heat to low and stir until mixture bubbles.
• Remove from heat and pour into 8 slightly wet 2-ounce molds or a 2 1/2- to 3-cup pan or mold. Refrigerate until cooled and set. Invert onto a serving dish. Sprinkle with nutmeg and cinnamon and serve.

COCONUT MILK FLAN

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.
