Flan De Queso Y Guayaba Guava Flan Recipes

GUAVA AND CHEESE FLAN (FLAN DE GUAYABA Y QUESO)

Steps:

• To prepare the caramel, put 1 cup of sugar in a small pot with 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Stir once and reduce the heat to medium and cook about 5 minutes or until the syrup turns a caramel color.
• Immediately pour an equal amount of the caramel into each ramekin or any oven proof mold you want to use. Swirl each dish to coat the base with the caramel, work fast as the caramel will harden quickly as it cools. Place all the ramekins in a large roasting pan and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350° F.
• In a blender add the eggs, condensed milk, evaporated milk, cream cheese, guava paste and vanilla extract and blend until smooth.
• Carefully pour an equal amount of the flan mixture into the caramelized ramekins in the roasting pan. Then add hot water to the roasting pan, not to the ramekins, until the water comes half way up the sides of the ramekins.
• Place the roasting pan in the oven and bake for 1 hour or until a knife inserted in the center of the flan comes out clean.
• Remove from the roasting pan and cool for at least 30 minutes. Then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• To serve, carefully run a knife around the edge of the ramekin, cover with a serving plate, flip it over and gently remove the ramekin allowing the caramel run over the sides.

FLAN DE QUESO Y GUAYABA

Steps:

• Coloca el azúcar y el agua en un molde redondo y grueso para pasteles de 9 x 2 pulgadas. Revuelve hasta que el azúcar se haya disuelto un poco. Coloca el molde en la estufa a fuego medio. Cocina el azúcar durante aproximadamente 10 minutos, sin revolver, hasta que esté dorada. Con guantes de cocina, inclina el molde para cubrir el fondo y los lados con el caramelo. Coloca el molde en una parrilla de alambre para que el caramelo se enfríe y se endurezca un poco.
• Precaliente el horno a 350°F. Coloca el resto de los ingredientes en el vaso de una licuadora y tápalo. Licúa hasta que estén bien mezclados. Vierte la mezcla sobre el caramelo frío en el molde. Cubre con papel de aluminio. Coloca el molde para pasteles en un molde grande para hornear. Vierte agua caliente en el molde para hornear hasta la mitad de la altura del molde para pasteles para formar un baño maría.
• Hornea durante 1 hora o hasta que un cuchillo insertado en el centro del flan salga limpio. Retira el molde para pasteles del baño maría. Deja enfriar sobre una parrilla. Despegue cuidadosamente los lados del flan con un cuchillo. Cúbrelo.
• Refrigera durante 3 horas o durante toda la noche hasta que esté bien frío. Para desmoldar, voltea el flan sobre un plato grande plano o una fuente para pay de 10 pulgadas.

COCONUT CHEESE FLAN (FLAN DE COCO Y QUESO)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a heavy skillet over medium-low heat, cook and stir sugar with a wooden spoon until melted and golden, about 10 minutes. Caramel is very hot. Very carefully pour the caramel into a 9-inch round, 3-inch deep baking dish. Swirl dish to cover bottom and sides. The caramel will harden as it cools.
• Combine the eggs, cream cheese, and sweetened condensed milk in a blender. Cover, and blend on High until well combined; transfer to a large bowl. Pour the cream of coconut, coconut milk, evaporated milk, coconut-flavored rum, and vanilla extract into the blender; cover and blend on High until well combined. Pour into the bowl with the cream cheese mixture. Whisk until incorporated. Pour the flan mixture into the caramel-coated baking dish.
• Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place the filled baking dish on the towel, and place roasting pan in the preheated oven. Fill roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Bake until the flan is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Transfer to a wire rack; cool. Refrigerate flan until ready to serve.
• To serve, run a knife around the edges of the pan and flip the flan out onto a serving platter. Spoon any caramel remaining in the baking dish over the flan.

GUAVA FLAN

Steps:

• PREHEAT oven to 350°F Place 1 cup of the sugar in small heavy saucepan; cook on medium heat until sugar is melted and deep golden brown, stirring constantly with wooden spoon. This should take about 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Immediately pour into 9-inch round baking pan; tilt pan to evenly cover bottom of pan with syrup. Set aside.
• PLACE milk and cream cheese in blender; cover. Blend until smooth. Add remaining 1 cup sugar, the eggs, vanilla and salt; cover. Blend just until smooth; add guava paste and pour into prepared baking pan. ( I found that sprinkling the cubes of guava paste across the top of the raw custard helped to keep them from globbing up in the middle- Next time I might try blending the guava paste in blender with the rest of the ingredients) Place filled baking pan in larger baking pan; add enough hot water to larger pan to come halfway up side of smaller pan.
• BAKE 50 minute to 1 hour or until knife inserted near center comes out clean. Cool. Carefully remove flan from water. Cool on wire rack.
• REFRIGERATE several hours or unti chilled. When ready to serve, invert pan onto serving plate to unmold flan. (Some of the guava cubes stuck to the caramel and I just took them off with a fork and stuck them back in the top of the flan where they came from!) Store any leftovers in refrigerator.

FLAN DE QUESO Y GUAYABA (GUAVA FLAN)

Steps:

• NOTE!!! This recipe makes almost 8 cups liquid. I got two 8" cake pans of flan, and had to double the caramel stated below. I personally don't like the sugar/water method - as I grew up using only sugar until it caramelized. Your choice! Don't stir the caramel at all...or it will crystallize in the pan.
• Preheat the oven to 350F. Prepare a water bath in a pan(s), (see notes), large enough to hold the baking pan(s). Place a tea-towel on the bottom of the pan, in order to keep bubbles from forming in the flan.
• For the caramel: Combine the sugar and water in a heavy-bottomed frying pan. Turn the heat to medium high and cook until the sugar melts and turns an amber color. Carefully pour the caramel into the baking dish. If you're making the flan in two pans, make the caramel separately for each one.
• For the flan: In a blender, blend the cream cheese, eggs, milks, guava nectar, vanilla, and sugar until smooth. Pour the mixture into the baking pan. NOTE: this made too much for my blender. I blended all the ingredients EXCEPT the guava nectar, then poured the mix into a large bowl then whisked in the guava nectar.
• Place the pan in a water bath and add enough water to come halfway up the flan pan. Bake for one hour.
• Remove from oven and let cool completely for at least an hour. Refrigerate for several hours before serving.

FLAN DE QUESO (CREAM CHEESE FLAN)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fill a large oven-safe pot with water to 1 inch; bring to a boil.
• Place sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, cream cheese, milk, and vanilla extract in a blender; blend until smooth.
• Place sugar in an even layer in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until edges start to brown, about 1 minute; drag sugar into the center with a spatula once the edges start to brown. Continue cooking, stirring from time to time, until caramel is an even golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Pour caramel into a 9-inch flan mold or baking pan; swirl so that caramel reaches 1 inch up the sides. Pour condensed milk mixture on top. Place mold in the pot of boiling water.
• Bake flan in the preheated oven until a damp table knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes.
• Chill flan in the refrigerator until firm, 2 to 3 hours. Invert onto a serving plate so that caramel is on top.
