Coffee-caramel flan is a delicious way to put a little calcium in your diet.

Ingredients

Sugar

½ cup(s)

Cornstarch

1 tbsp(s)

Fat free evaporated milk

1 cup(s)

Fat-free caramel topping

2 tbsp(s)

Instant espresso

1 tbsp(s)

Egg whites

2 serving(s), large

Vanilla extract

1 tsp(s)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a saucepan, whisk together sugar and cornstarch. Gradually stir in milk. Bring to a simmer, whisking constantly until slightly thickened. Stir in caramel topping and instant espresso. Remove from heat.
  3. Whisk egg whites and vanilla together. Very gradually stir hot milk into egg whites.
  4. Pour about 1/3 cup of mixture into each of four 1/2-cup ramekins. Place ramekins in a shallow baking dish and add enough hot water (on outside of ramekins) to rise about 1 inch up sides of ramekins.
  5. Bake until firm and puffy, about 30 minutes. Carefully remove baking dish from oven, lift out ramekins and let cool before serving. To serve chilled, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold. Yields 1 per serving.
