Instructions

  1. 1 Warm milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Add 2/3 cup sugar and stir to dissolve, about 3 minutes. Make sure milk does not boil; turn off heat if necessary.
  2. 2 Whisk eggs and egg yolk by hand; do not overmix. Pour slowly into the warm milk-sugar mixture and stir continuously over low heat for 1 1/2 minutes.
  3. 3 Strain through a tightly woven mesh strainer into a bowl to remove any solids that may have formed. Add vanilla extract to the bowl; mix until well combined. Set aside.
  4. 4 Pour 1 cup sugar into a wide skillet over medium heat. Stir occasionally with a wooden spoon until sugar has evenly melted and turned a golden caramel color, about 5 minutes. Immediately remove from heat and pour into a pressure cooker-safe cake pan, coating the bottom with liquid sugar. Pour in custard. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
  5. 5 Place a trivet in the bottom of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot) and add 1 cup water. Place the cake pan onto the trivet and close and lock the lid. Seal the valve and select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 9 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  6. 6 Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, for 10 minutes, then turn the valve to Venting to release remaining pressure. Unlock and remove the lid. Remove the trivet and pan.
  7. 7 Allow to cool for 1 hour, then chill for at least 3 to 4 hours, or overnight. Slide knife carefully around the edges and hold the bottom securely as you invert onto a large serving dish; the caramel should drip over the flan and onto the plate.

Instructions

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. 2 Combine sugar and water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil without stirring to avoid the mixture crystallizing. Continue to boil, swirling the pan occasionally, until sugar syrup begins to brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low and watch the color.
  3. 3 Once the caramel is a deep brown, 2 to 3 minutes, immediately pour it into a 10-inch flan mold. Carefully tilt the mold to make sure the whole bottom surface is covered.
  4. 4 Combine evaporated milk, condensed milk, egg yolks, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Stir lightly to prevent bubbles or foam from forming; strain batter.
  5. 5 Place a roasting pan large enough to hold the flan mold on the oven rack. Fold two 32-inch long sheets of foil lengthwise in quarters to make strips. Cross the strips and place the flan mold in the roasting pan, with the ends of the strips extending over the edges of the roasting pan. Crimp ends slightly to keep them in place.
  6. 6 Slowly pour the custard mixture into the caramel-lined flan mold.
  7. 7 Add enough hot water to the roasting pan to come halfway up the side of the mold. Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil.
  8. 8 Bake in the preheated oven until firm and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Carefully remove the roasting pan from the oven. Carefully remove the flan mold from the roasting pan using the foil strips. Let cool on a wire rack, about 1 hour. Cover and chill in the refrigerator until completely cool, at least 4 hours or overnight.
  9. 9 Run a paring knife around the edges of the flan. Cover the mold with a rimmed platter and carefully flip it over to release the flan from the mold for serving. Scrape any excess caramel from the mold over the flan.
