How to make Coffee Flan
For caramel syrup
- Step 1
Add instant coffee powder and water to a bowl and mix it.
- Step 2
Heat a pan and add the coffee mix along with sugar.
- Step 3
Caramelize the mixture until the sugar completely melts and turns golden brown.
- Step 4
Pour the caramelized syrup into a medium-hot 7-inch cake tin, spreading it evenly. Set aside.
For pudding
- Step 1
In a bowl, mix instant coffee powder, hot milk, and a pinch of salt.
- Step 2
Add eggs and vanilla essence to the mixture and combine well with a whisk or fork.
- Step 3
Add room-temperature milk and sugar to the mixture, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Step 4
Pour the pudding mixture into the cake tin with the caramel syrup.
- Step 5
Place the cake tin in a steamer and cover the steamer with a cotton towel before closing it with a lid. Do not close the lid tightly.
- Step 6
Steam the pudding for 35-40 minutes in medium heat.
- Step 7
Remove from the flame and let it cool down completely.
- Step 8
Refrigerate the cooled coffee flan for 2 hours.
- Step 9
To de-mould the flan, run a knife around the edges of the tin to loosen it. Invert a large platter with a lip over the tin, holding them securely together, then quickly invert and turn out the coffee flan onto the platter. The caramel will pour out over and around the coffee flan.

Tips & Tricks
Ensure the milk is at room temperature before adding it to the pudding mixture to avoid curdling.
Do not close the steamer lid tightly to allow steam to escape and prevent water from dripping onto the flan.
Refrigerating the flan for at least 2 hours helps it set properly and enhances its flavor.
Use a knife to loosen the edges carefully to avoid breaking the flan while de-moulding.
FAQS
Can I use regular coffee instead of instant coffee powder?
Instant coffee powder is recommended for this recipe as it dissolves easily and provides a strong flavor. Regular coffee may not dissolve as well and could alter the texture.
Can I make this flan without eggs?
Eggs are essential for this recipe as they help set the flan. Substituting eggs may require a completely different recipe.
How long can I store coffee flan?
Coffee flan can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Ensure it is covered to prevent it from absorbing other flavors.
Can I use a different size cake tin?
A 7-inch cake tin is recommended for even cooking. Using a different size may affect the cooking time and consistency.
Can I skip the caramel syrup?
The caramel syrup adds a rich flavor and texture to the flan. Skipping it will result in a less flavorful dessert.
