Ingredients

  • ¼ Cup Date Syrup
  • 3 Egg Yolks
  • ½ Cup Date Sugar
  • 325 ML Vanilla Almond Milk

Instructions

  • Pre-Heat Oven to 325 degrees and place 8 mini ramekins (about 1 inch in diameter) in a 9x15 deep baking pan.  Pour equal amounts of date syrup in each ramekin.  Set aside. 
  • Boil about 2 cups of water in a kettle and set aside.
  • Place the egg yolks and date sugar in a large bowl and mix until nice and creamy and the sugar is blended in well.  Slowly whisk in the Vanilla flavored Almond Milk.  Take care to not over mix or create any bubbles.  Strain the mixture twice through a normal strainer over a bowl. 
  • Pour the mixture in equal amounts in the mini ramekins.  When you do this next step make sure you are near the oven already.  Slowly pour in the hot water that you boiled earlier in the baking pan just half way up the ramekins.  Cover the baking tray with foil and bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
  • Take out of the oven and remove the foil.  Let rest to room temperature in the water bath.  Once the Leche Flan has cooled down, place in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving. 
  • To unmold, take a small knife and run it around the edge of the ramekin.  Place your serving plate on top and flip over.  Lift up the ramekin to reveal a perfectly set flan with the date syrup creating a nice caramel sauce.
