White Chocolate Coconut Flan Recipes

FLAN DE COCO (COCONUT FLAN)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 390 F/200 C.
• in a saucepan, pour water, add sugar and bring to boil. Once the caramel turns into a golden color, pour it into the bottom of a 9-inch/23 cm pie pan and let it cool down.
• To make the custard, in a separate bowl, add whole eggs and brown sugar and whisk with a hand whisk. Add evaporated milk and combine. Add sweetened condensed milk and cold water, whisk again. Finally, add coconut and mix.
• Pour the preparation into the pie tin, over the caramel. Place the tin inside a large frying pan, bring on the oven rack, and carefully add hot water. The water level should reach about halfway up the flan tin. Bake the flan for 30 to 35 minutes minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and set it aside to cool at room temperature in the water bath. Then remove the flan pan.
• Once the flan is cool, slide a knife blade between the custard and the mold. Then place a serving plate on top of the mold and flip the flan quickly using a sharp move. The flan will be covered with caramel on top, while the coconut forms a biscuit-like base.

COCONUT FLAN RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F (180° C).
• In a nonstick medium skillet or saucepan, stir together sugar, water, and a few drops of lemon/ medium and cook over medium heat until sugar is melted and turns into an amber color (about 8-10 minutes). Make sure to not stir or disturb the mixture while cooking! Pour into an 8-inch round pan, quickly swirl the caramel around the bottom and sides of the pan to coat, and let sit for at least 3-5 minutes or until hardened.
• In a blender, combine sweetened condensed milk, coconut milk, eggs, and vanilla until smooth (and there are no visible traces of eggs), about 30-60 seconds. Pour the mixture into the pan.
• Prepare the bain-marie (water bath) by placing the flan pan into a 13×9-inch baking pan. Fill the outer pan with boiling water to halfway up the flan pan.
• Bake for 45 minutes or until the coconut flan is set and slightly jiggly. Transfer the flan pan to a wire rack for about 30 minutes. Then, place in the fridge for at least 4 hours or until the flan is chilled.
• To unmold, warm the bottom of the pan on a warm water bath for about 3-5 minutes and gently run a paring knife around the edges of the pan. Place a large plate over the pan and invert while holding tightly to unmold the flan.
• Top with coconut flakes for garnish. Chill until serving time!

WHITE CHOCOLATE FLAN

Steps:

• You need a 10-inch flan or cake pan.
• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Make Caramel Syrup: Put the sugar in a small saucepan and stir in enough water to moisten all the sugar. Heat gently until the sugar is dissolved. Then bring to a rapid boil and cook for several minutes until caramel-colored. Do not stir. (Careful! Cooked sugar is very hot and can burn the skin if it spatters.) Immediately pour the hot caramel syrup into the flan pan and swirl the pan until it coats the bottom and a bit of the sides. The caramel will harden at this point and melt again later as the flan bakes.
• To make custard: In a heavy medium saucepan, over medium heat, combine the white chocolate with the coconut milk, half and half, cinnamon, liqueur, orange zest and vanilla extract. Cook over medium heat just until mixture is scalding-hot (not boiling) and chocolate has melted, whisking often. Remove from heat; set aside for 20 minutes or until slightly cool.
• Using a wire whisk, beat eggs and egg yolks, and sugar in a large bowl until blended. Continue whisking the egg mixture as you slowly ladle in the hot chocolate mixture, in a thin stream, until all the hot chocolate mixture has been used up.
• Pour custard mixture into prepared flan pan and set into a slightly larger baking pan. Pour enough boiling-hot water into the larger baking pan to come halfway up the sides of your flan pan.
• Bake flan for one hour. Remove, cool and refrigerate.
• Run the tip of a small, sharp knife around the edge of flan to loosen from pan. Invert onto a serving plate with a lip before serving as the caramel syrup will have melted and created a delicious sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place the sugar in a nonstick skillet, and slowly melt over low heat without stirring. Shake the pan by it's handle to mix, but do not stir with a spoon. When the sugar has melted, pour into a 3 quart glass baking dish, coating the bottom.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour in the condensed milk, evaporated milk, coconut milk, whole milk, and vanilla; mix until well blended, about 2 minutes. Pour the egg mixture over the sugar in the pan. Place the pan inside of a larger dish and set in the oven. Fill the outer pan with water to 1 inch deep.
• Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove the flan from the water bath, and refrigerate until cold, 4 hours to overnight.
• To serve, run a knife around the edges of the dish to loosen the flan, then invert onto a serving dish.

• Quickly return molds to water bath.
• Gently blend milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon (if necessary) and salt in large bowl.
• Stir in coconut and chocolate powder.
• Divide mixture between molds; mixture should come to within 1/4 inch of top.
• Bake until custard is set and tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 50 minutes (reduce oven temperature if water starts to boil or custard may curdle).
• Remove from water bath and cool.
• Refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight.

• Place 1 cup of the sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook gently, without stirring, but shaking occasionally until the sugar has melted. Continue cooking until the sugar has completely melted, and turned golden brown. Pour into a large, glass baking dish. Spread the caramel evenly over the bottom of the dish, then set aside to cool for 15 minutes before proceeding.
• Once the caramel has hardened, pour the condensed milk, evaporated milk, milk, eggs, 1/2 cup sugar, and coconut into a blender. Blend for 3 minutes until smooth. Pour into baking dish over the caramel.
• Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes until set. When done, remove from oven and let cool for 30 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of the dish to separate the flan from the sides. Refrigerate overnight.
