We love homemade flan and we encourage you to try the one we suggest today, cream.
It can be prepared in small individual molds or also in a large one. If we opt for the big one, we can serve it later in small cubes, as you can see in the photos. We will surprise the children with some Flan "pastelitos" original and very rich.
As always, you can modify the amount of sugar depending on your tastes. 80 grams seems more than enough to me, but if you have a sweet tooth, you can add a gram more. Bear in mind, yes, that the candyOnce the flan is removed from the mold, it also adds sweetness.
Cream flan
Great homemade dessert for the whole family.

Ingredients
- 150 g of cream for cooking
- 4 eggs and 1 yolk
- 80 g of sugar
- The skin of 1 lemon
- Half cinnamon stick
- 450 g whole or semi-skimmed milk
For the candy
- 150 g of sugar
- 4 tablespoons of water
Preparation
We put the milk with the cinnamon and the lemon in a saucepan. We put it on the fire and, when it starts to boil, we turn off the fire and let it rest for half an hour.
After that time, we remove the lemon skin and the cinnamon stick and add the cream.
In another container (better if it is large) we put the 4 broken eggs and the yolk.
Add the sugar and beat.
Using a strainer we are pouring into that bowl with the egg and the sugar the mixture that we have previously made of flavored milk with cream.
We mix well.
In a frying pan or saucepan we prepare the caramel by putting the sugar on the fire together with the water.
Without mixing we let it cook over low heat until it acquires a golden color.
Then we remove it and put it on the base of our mold.
We pour our flan mixture over the caramel.
Cook in a bain-marie in the oven at a temperature of 160º.
Once baked, we let it cool to room temperature and then in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours.
We unmold and serve.
