Ingredients for Low Fat Flan:
- ½ cup sugar
- Two 12 ounce can evaporated milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1½ cups egg substitute or 6 eggs
Preparation:
-
Prepare 11 Inch Skillet by filling it halfway to the top
of the skillet with water. Place the utility rack on the lip
of the skillet. Bring water to a boil over medium heat.
- Make caramel in the 1 Quart Unit by melting the sugar at
medium heat. Stir until sugar turns light brown. Pour the melted
sugar into the Double Boiler Inset, quickly turning pan so
caramel covers the bottom.
- In a blender mix the evaporated milk, sweetened condensed
milk, vanilla and eggs. Pour this mixture on top of the caramel
in the double boiler insert.
- Place the Double Boiler Inset on top of the Utility Rack
and cover the 11 Inch Skillet with the Dome Cover. Turn the
heat to medium-low and steam for 30 minutes or until toothpick
inserted in the center of the flan comes out clean.
- Remove the double boiler from the utility rack. Run a knife
around the edges of the flan and turn onto a large plate. If
the top of the flan seems to have excessive moisture, blot it
off with a paper towel.
