Step-by-Step Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, 1/4 cup of the heavy cream, and 1/4 cup of the whole milk. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved.
2
Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the caramel turns a deep amber color.
3
Remove the saucepan from the heat and slowly pour in the remaining 1 1/4 cups of heavy cream and 3/4 cup of whole milk. The mixture will bubble up and steam vigorously, so be careful not to splash any of the hot caramel.
4
In a blender or food processor, combine the egg yolks, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
5
Add the blended egg yolks to the caramel mixture and stir until well combined.
6
Pour the mixture into 6 (1/2 cup) ramekins or small baking dishes. Place the ramekins in a large baking dish and add enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
7
Bake the flan for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly jiggly.
8
Remove the flan from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
