Cream Caramel or Flan de Huevo
A few weeks ago I posted Cheesecake Flan. This is one of my favorite desserts although this one I just made is without the cream cheese. Both are just superb but my ultimate favorite one would have to be the plain creme caramel version or flan de huevo like we say in Spain.
This is extremely simple to put together and even moreso if you buy the caramel already made like I do (I bring my bottles from Spain, sorry!!). I also bake my flan on an 8 inch pampered chef pan but you can use individual ones or any other pan you may prefer. Just adjust the baking time accordingly. If you are using ramekins your time would be decreased probably by at least 30 minutes.
Anyhow, I love flan, and so does my family. My 8 inch flan lasts approximately 24 hours, well not even that long….Enjoy!

These look so good. I adore creme caramel and I really do like the way you have portioned yours. I hope you have a great day. Blessings…Mary
These look wonderful. The drippy caramel is really making my mouth water.
This looks awesome! And it’s one of the few recipes I’ve seen that doesn’t rely on condensed milk so I’m on board! Can’t wait to try it :)
