Easy Pumpkin Flan Recipes

PUMPKIN FLAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Put the granulated sugar in a 9-inch cake pan or pie plate, set on the center rack in the oven, and bake until the sugar is caramel colored, 8 to 12 minutes. Swirl to cover the bottom of the pie plate with the caramel.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Stir in pumpkin puree. In a medium bowl, whisk together the half-and-half, eggs, and vanilla. Thoroughly blend the egg mixture into the pumpkin puree.
• Set the pie plate in a large roasting pan, and pour the custard over the caramel. Carefully pour enough hot tap water into the roasting pan to reach halfway up the sides of the pie plate. Bake until the custard is set, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Cool and chill in the refrigerator. Run a knife around the outside edge of the flan and invert it onto a rimmed plate. Cut into wedges or scoop and serve with a dollop of whipped cream.

PUMPKIN FLAN (FLAN DE CALABAZA)

Steps:

• In a saucepan, melt sugar over medium-high heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning until it turns an amber color. Don't walk away. Sugar can burn so easily. Once you get liquid gold, remove it from the heat and pour the caramel into a 9-inch round cake pan, moving it around to coat the bottom of the pan.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• In a high-speed blender, add sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, pumpkin purée, eggs, vanilla, pumpkin spice and salt. Blend until smooth. Pour the milk mixture over the set caramel in the round pan.
• Place the cake pan in a large roasting pan. Carefully fill the roasting pan with about 2 inches of hot water.
• Bake the flan for 50-55 minutes or until the center is just set. If the outer rims look set but the middle jiggles when you gently shake the pan, the flan is done. You will be tempted to continue to bake it but then you run the risk of it getting a rubbery texture. Don't do it!
• Carefully remove the pan from the water bath and allow it to cool for 30 minutes at room temperature. Place it in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight so the flan can fully set.
• Remove the pan from the fridge. Run a knife around the sides of the round pan to slightly loosen the flan. Place a large plate on top of the round pan and invert the pan (flip it over) so the flan transfers onto a large plate. Slice, serve, and enjoy!

PUMPKIN FLAN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt 1 cup sugar in a pan over medium heat. Stir until it caramelizes, being careful not to burn the sugar. After caramelizing the sugar, quickly throw it in the mold you are using for the flan, and move the mold around so the bottom of the mold will be covered with the caramelized sugar and set aside. It will become hardened.
• Combine the pumpkin pie filling, evaporated milk, condensed milk, eggs, vanilla, and allspice in a blender, and blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into the caramelized pan.
• Place the pan with the caramelized flan into a bigger mold filled with about 1 " of hot water.
• Being very careful not to spill the water, and get burned or have the water get into the flan,.
• Bake in preheated oven for about 50 min or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, Refrigerate for at least 3 hours. I usually leave it in the same pan if its just for our family and then serve as needed,.

EASY PUMPKIN FLAN

Steps:

• Make the caramel sauce by sprinkling the sugar around evenly in a clean frying pan, and cooking it over medium heat until it turns brown.

• In another bowl, whip the eggs together then all the other custard ingredients. Pour into the pie pan.
• Fill a 10" pie pan halfway with warm water, and place the filled pie pan inside it.
• Bake at 350F for 45 minutes or until set.

PUMPKIN FLAN

Steps:

• Make the caramel: In a heavy saucepan, mix 3/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup water. The mixture should look like wet sand. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it begins to make large bubbles. Continue to cook without stirring, rotating the pan regularly, until the caramel is translucent and amber-colored, 12 to 15 minutes. Working quickly, pour caramel into a 2-quart oven-safe glass bowl and rotate the bowl so it coats the sides.
• Make the flan: In another saucepan, combine remaining sugar, cinnamon stick and half-and-half. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Let cool.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk eggs and egg yolks in a large bowl until well blended. Whisk in vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, salt and pumpkin and squash purées. Add cooled cream mixture and whisk well.
• Pour custard mixture through a mesh sieve, stirring and pressing with a spatula. You can do this directly into the bowl with the caramel, or into a separate bowl first, and then pour the strained mixture into the bowl with the caramel.
• Place the bowl with the custard into a larger baking dish and carefully add warm water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the flan bowl. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 45 to 60 minutes, or until flan is just set in the middle, but still jiggles slightly. (A wider, shallower baking vessel will cook more quickly than a deeper one.)
• Remove flan from water bath and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until completely cool, preferably overnight. To serve, run a knife around the edges of the flan, then put a serving platter on top of the bowl and invert. The flan should slip easily onto the serving platter with the caramel sauce pooling nicely around it.
