My in-laws’ friend is from the Phillipines and she taught me how to make leche flan. She said it is a traditional holiday dish. To me, it tastes a little more like custard than the traditional Latin flan.

Leche Flan

1 can evaporated milk

1 can condensed milk

1 lemon or vanilla

8 egg yolks

Lemon zest

Optional Top layer

1/2 cup sugar

2 Tbsp water

Heat sugar on high until golden brown

Pour into pan.

In a bowl, beat all ingredients except sugar and water and lemon zest.

Beat ingredients.

Strain ingredients.

Add lemon zest to taste.

Pour into pan with sugar. Heat pan in a bowl of water for 1 hour at 350.

After an hour, let cool. Place it on the refrigerator.

When you are ready to eat it, invert it onto a plate and enjoy!

What is your favorite sweet treat? I’d love to hear it in the comments below.

Enjoy,

Stephanie
