Ready for some lite flan and Doulton

So do you even like Flan ???... It's a Mexican desert which I happen to love and so does My oldest daughter and grandchildren..as well as Mom... so for a treat I often make it.  I usually used two cans of evaporated milk.,but that day didn't I only happen to have just one...so I thought to me....well I have plenty of regular milk so that is just what I did...I used one can of evaporated milk then I used the can to measure the amount of milk..

I grabbed a medium bowl turned on the oven to 350 or 375 degrees.
Got a large glass baking dish and five Ramekins placed them inside of the baking dish adding enough warm water going to the middle of the Ramekins..
In the medium bowl, I put 6 eggs and one can of evaporated milk and one can of regular 2% milk (using the can of the evaporated milk to measure) one tablespoon of sugar and a dash of vanilla...mixed it up with an hand mixer and put it through a sieve...into my large four cup measuring cup. I prepared the Carmel for the Ramekins..In a large non stick skillet I put around one large cup of sugar on medium heat to melt down to a dark carmel stirrimg with a wooden spoon at the end to make sure all the lumps were melted if any...once it was done you quickly pour it evenly into the Ramekins 
                        !!! NOT TOUCHING IT AT ALL !!!

 

      Then taking your custard and pouring it over the top of it...

 

This what it looks like... 

Carefully place into oven and cook for ten minutes at the 375 degrees then turn it down to the 350 degrees and cook for about 45 minutes more checking at that point to see if when you insert a knife it comes out clean...

  yummmmmmy ....

And now for some Doulton
