Alan's Flan




Ingredients:

½ cup blue agave
9 large eggs
2 cans sweetened condensed milk
2 cans evaporated milk
1 tablespoon vanilla

1 ½ cup caramel

You will need flan cookware and a large baking pan to put in as water bath.
 
Preparation:
 
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Put water in a pot to boil (for water bath).
Pour caramel in buttered flan cookware, tilting it to swirl the caramel around the sides.
In a blender, blend the eggs together. Mix in the milks then slowly mix in the 1/2 cup of sugar, then the vanilla. Blend smooth after each ingredient is added.
Pour custard into caramel lined cookware. Place cookware in a large glass or ceramic baking dish and fill with about 1-2 inches of hot water.
Bake for 45 minutes in the water bath and check with a knife just to the side of the center. If knife comes out clean, it's ready.
Remove and let cool.
Let the flan cool in refrigerator for 1 hour. Invert onto platter, the caramel sauce will flow over the custard.
