Passion Fruit Flan Recipe

Cooking Directions

• STEP 1.Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a water bath by placing a larger baking dish filled with hot water in the oven.
• STEP 2.In a saucepan, heat the passion fruit juice, sugar, and vanilla extract over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved.
• STEP 3.In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and condensed milk until well combined. Slowly pour the hot passion fruit mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
• STEP 4.Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps or solids. Pour the mixture into individual ramekins or a large baking dish.
• STEP 5.Place the ramekins or baking dish into the water bath in the oven. Bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until the flan is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
• STEP 6.Remove the flan from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, to allow the flan to fully set.
• STEP 7.To serve, run a knife around the edges of the ramekins or baking dish to loosen the flan. Invert the ramekins onto serving plates or serve directly from the baking dish.
• STEP 8.Garnish with fresh passion fruit pulp or a sprinkle of powdered sugar, if desired. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Cooking Tips

• Make sure to strain the passion fruit mixture to ensure a smooth and creamy texture in the flan.
• For a stronger passion fruit flavor, you can add some passion fruit pulp or puree to the custard mixture.
• To prevent the flan from sticking to the ramekins, you can lightly grease them with butter or cooking spray before pouring in the custard mixture.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover passion fruit flan can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Serve the flan chilled for the best taste and texture.
• You can garnish the flan with additional passion fruit pulp or a dollop of whipped cream for added flavor and presentation.
