Roseanne Golds Pumpkin Flan Recipes

PUMPKIN CREAM CHEESE FLAN RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In a medium pan, over medium heat, add one cup of sugar and water.
• Stir to dissolve sugar. Cook sugar mixture, swirling pot occasionally, until the caramel turns an amber color.
• Quickly, pour caramel into round 9-inch pan, being sure to swirl around to coat bottom and bottom sides completely. Allow to cool for ten minutes before adding in flan custard.
• In a blender, add in remaining ingredients. Blend well together.
• Gently add custard to caramel pan. Place pan in a larger pan for a water bath. Add water to the larger pan until the water reaches half of the level of the flan pan. Gently place in oven.
• Cook for 50-60 minutes, or until fork comes out clean. Remove pan from water bath, and allow to cool before refrigerating for 3-4 hours.

PUMPKIN FLAN WITH MAPLE CARAMEL

Steps:

• For the caramel, combine the sugar, maple syrup and 1/3 cup water in a small deep heavy-bottomed saucepan. Bring to a boil, swirling the pan (don?t stir!) to dissolve the sugar. Cook at a low boil without stirring for 5 to 10 minutes, until the mixture turns a golden brown and registers 230 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Watch it carefully so it doesn?t burn! Off the heat, swirl in the fleur de sel and immediately pour into an 8-by-2-inch round cake pan (not a springform!). Set aside to cool for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, canned pumpkin and mascarpone in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on medium-low speed until smooth. Whisk in the eggs, vanilla, maple extract, orange zest, cinnamon and nutmeg. Gently pour the pumpkin mixture into the pan with the caramel so they don?t combine.
• Place the pan in a roasting pan large enough to hold the cake pan flat and fill the roasting pan with enough of the hottest tap water to come halfway up the sides of the cake pan. Bake in the center of the oven for 70 to 75 minutes, until the custard is just set. It will be firm but still jiggle slightly in the middle; a knife inserted into the center of the flan will come out clean. Remove the flan from the water bath, place on a cooling rack and cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Don?t tilt the pan or the caramel will run out!
• Run a small knife around the edge of the flan. Turn a flat serving plate with a slight lip over the cake pan and flip them, turning the flan out onto the plate. The caramel should run out over the flan. Cut into wedges and serve with the caramel spooned over each slice.

PUMPKIN FLAN

Steps:

• Set a large pan of cold water near stove. Combine 1/2 cup of the sugar and the 1/4 cup water in a small, heavy saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves. Cover pan and bring to a boil. Leave cover on until condensation washes down insides of pan. Uncover pan, turn heat to medium high, and boil, without stirring, until syrup turns a deep amber. Carefully plunge bottom of pan into the cold water to stop the cooking.
• Quickly pour caramel into a 9-inch-round glass baking dish; holding dish with potholders, swirl to coat bottom and halfway up sides of pan. Set aside to cool.
• Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, combine pumpkin, remaining 3/4 cup sugar, spices, salt, eggs, and egg yolks. Mix in vanilla and scalded milk, then pass mixture through a fine sieve. Pour into caramel-lined dish and set in a roasting pan. Fill roasting pan with very hot water to halfway up sides of dish.
• Cover roasting pan loosely with foil and bake for 60 to 70 minutes, or until center of flan is nearly set: a thin-bladed knife should come out clean. Let cool to room temperature in water bath, then chill overnight.
• To unmold, run a sharp knife around flan, put a plate over top, quickly flip over, and carefully remove dish.
