Pumpkin Flan Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 4 eggs
• 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz.)
• 1 can evaporated milk (12 oz.)
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. In a medium saucepan, heat granulated sugar over medium-high heat until it melts and turns amber in color.
3. Immediately pour the caramel into a 9-inch round baking dish, tilting it to coat the bottom and sides. Set aside.
4. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and pumpkin puree until well combined.
5. Add sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until smooth.
6. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
7. Place the baking dish into a roasting pan and pour enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
8. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until a knife inserted 1 inch from the edge comes out clean.
9. Remove from the oven, transfer to a wire rack to cool, and refrigerate until chilled, at least 3 hours or overnight.
10. To serve, run a knife around the edge of the flan and invert onto a serving plate. Cut into wedges and serve topped with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.

Verdict:

This Pumpkin Flan recipe is a perfect blend of creamy pumpkin and sweet caramel flavors. It is a delicious dessert to serve during the festive season.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve the pumpkin flan chilled with a dollop of whipped cream and an extra sprinkle of cinnamon on top for an added flavor. This dessert goes well with a hot cup of coffee or tea.
