Cómo preparar Delicious Easy Cuban Style Flan

**Prepare the Caramel:** In a saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup water (optional, for easier caramel making). Cook over medium heat, swirling the pan occasionally, until the sugar melts into a deep amber color. If using a flanera, make the caramel directly in it. Carefully pour the caramel into the bottom of your flanera or 1-quart round casserole dish, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden.
**Whisk Together the Custard:** In a large bowl, whisk together 1 whole large egg and 5 large egg yolks until light and frothy.
**Combine Wet Ingredients:** Add 1 (12-ounce) can of evaporated milk, 1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or 1/2 teaspoon, to taste) to the egg mixture. Whisk until well combined and smooth.
**Assemble the Flan:** Carefully pour the custard mixture over the hardened caramel in your prepared flanera or casserole dish.
**Create a Water Bath:** Place the flanera or casserole dish into a larger, oven-safe baking dish. Carefully pour hot water into the baking dish until it comes halfway up the sides of the flanera or casserole dish.
**Bake:** Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 45 minutes.
**Rest:** Turn off the oven and let the flan sit in the oven for an additional 15 minutes.
**Cool and Chill:** Remove the flan from the oven and water bath. Let it cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flan to set completely.
**Unmold and Serve:** To unmold, run a butter knife around the edges of the flan. Place a serving plate upside down over the flanera or casserole dish and carefully invert. The caramel will drizzle down over the flan.
**Enjoy!** Serve chilled and savor the delightful taste of your homemade Cuban flan!
