Delicious Pumpkin Flan

Pumpkin flan is a traditional dessert that reminds me a lot of family gatherings in the fall season. In its preparation, I like to use fresh pumpkin, which gives it a unique texture and accentuates the flavor. It is a sweet that always surprises for its softness and balanced flavor, besides having the added bonus of being very healthy due to its variety of nutrient-rich ingredients.

Directions

90 min.
1. Step

Preheat the oven to 180°C. While it is heating, cut the pumpkin into small pieces and remove the seeds. Remember to reserve some seeds for decoration if desired.

2. Step

Cook the pumpkin in a pot with water until tender. It is important that the pumpkin is very tender so that it can integrate well with the rest of the ingredients.

3. Step

Once the pumpkin is soft, you should let it cool a little and then proceed to mash it with a blender until you obtain a puree. It is important that it is as smooth as possible so that it does not affect the texture of the flan.

4. Step

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and add the condensed milk, evaporated milk, vanilla and cinnamon.

5. Step

Add the pumpkin puree to the egg-milk mixture and blend until smooth.

6. Step

To make the caramel, place the sugar in a pan over medium heat and wait for it to melt completely. It is important not to leave it too long to prevent it from burning and acquiring a bitter taste.

7. Step

Pour the caramel into the mold where you are going to make the flan and then pour the flan mixture on top.

8. Step

Bake the flan in a bain-marie in the oven for about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

9. Step

Let cool and unmold gently to avoid breakage.
