How to Make Orange Flan Flan De Naranja

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Caramelize the sugar: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup water. Cook, without stirring, until the sugar dissolves and turns a deep amber color. Carefully pour the caramel into a 9-inch pie dish or similar baking dish, swirling to coat the bottom and sides.
  3. Prepare the flan custard: In a large bowl, whisk together the condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, orange juice, and orange zest until well combined.
  4. Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a separate bowl to remove any lumps.
  5. Pour the custard mixture over the caramel in the prepared baking dish.
  6. Place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish (this creates a water bath).
  7. Bake for 60 minutes, or until the flan is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  9. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flan to fully set and the flavors to meld.
  10. To serve, run a thin knife around the edges of the flan to loosen it from the dish. Invert the flan onto a serving plate, letting the caramel sauce drizzle over the top.
