I ate the last piece of flan that my wife and I have been fighting over I won the *custardy battle.*
You sir, I find your puns on so many cooking videos and I always laugh.
The only person that can nail a perfect pun 👌
Make more Flan a double batch. 😁
Custard’s last stand...
@@stevev3664 Nice 😂
I am a chef at an assisted living facility, and I've already made for them your tiramisu and I made the churro's tonight and these folks have been loving the desserts. It's extra special because it gives them something to look forward to, and somehow your instruction is so easy to execute. Thank you.

I’m pretty new to baking and this recipe was amazing. One small thing that did cause me to waste though was the fact that creating the caramel requires you to not use a non stick pan. I didn’t know that , and I tried twice before switching to stainless steel and fixing my mistake. Just a heads up for anyone who was wondering why their caramel was crystallizing before it browned
Whaaaaatttttt I didn't know that. That's why my caramel is always crystalize. In Cuba we have a aluminum pan and never crystalize. That's why. Thanks for let us know that. Love it
@@yenisetpelaez2297 your welcome!
I used aluminum and it crystalized. I am not sure what I did wrong 😔
@@claudiamarcelacastropaz8651 aluminum? does it have a nonstick coating? also make sure you aren't moving the sugar, that might also cause it to crystalize
Hello from Puerto Rico! My grandma makes flan and uses pretty much the same ingredients but adds 1/2 cup of sugar and puts everything in the blender. She's also never used the oven, it's always done in the stove. My grandma loves to watch you cook and we like to sit down, watch your videos and take notes. Thank you for your recipes!
@Katia Otero Yes, we always do it on the stovetop, a Bain- Marie to be exact. I use only 4 ounces of cream cheese and 3-4 eggs, depending on their size. It comes out exactly like this one. I sometimes omit the cream cheese altogether. There are so many ways to tweak this recipe to your liking. Thank you for sharing your memories about your grandma with us. I just love when our grandmothers share and teach us their cooking recipes and techniques. Much love to your abuelita.
In the caribbeans too,it s on the stove. Thank you for sharing
Same! I’m from the Caribbean. My dad and I like baking and trying new recipes. So I asked him if we could make a flan instead of a cheesecake. He liked this recipe as well and today we are making it. We are using this recipe because we never tried it before and we love this channel because it’s fun and simple and really enjoyable to watch ❤
Such an easy recipe and it's so good. My go to flan recipe. I'm getting better and better at baking desserts and I've learned most of it from this channel. Even pre-ordered the cookbook as a way of support, even when I could easily just watch the videos. Started out several years ago because I wanted cheesecake and figured I could make it myself. Now, I bake a ton of desserts. Just wanted to thank you for the easy step by step directions as I prepare this recipe for tomorrow's Super Bowl game. Got my go to cheesecake done and now it's the cheese flan followed by the Hawaiian butter mochi cake.
I just made this Flan. Sooooo Uber delicious and I love how easy it was! The cream cheese makes it so luxurious. Omg took me back to my childhood, bc my mama used to make flan all the time. Thanks for such a fantastic and easy recipe!!
i love how he tells that he adds sweetened condensed milk to his coffee in the morning in every recipe he uses it in 🥺 he's so adorable
I have made this three times for my family. It is so delicious, they can’t get enough! Thank you for another great recipe !
I make the Puerto Rican version that includes coconut milk and its delicious! Love Flan! It's amazing that there are so many countries that have their variation of it. Flan unites us ❤😊
Every time I watch your videos, I am smiling! Thank you for your recipes and for your amazing energy!
One of my favorite desserts. So simple yet so rich in texture and taste.
I love ALL of your videos and absolutely love that you're always smiling and always seem so down to earth!! You are such inspiration to me as someone who enjoys cooking so much😊😊
I love how he keeps the bloopers, making the video much more relatable.
Omg I’m in love with this dish, I tried and tested this recipe myself. It came out so smooth, soft, and made you feel warm inside. Well done!
I know this will be the best flan recipe ever. You always come through with the best 🔥
You are too sweet. Thank you!
Pls visit my channel for easy recipes... Just a teen baker😊😊
Thank you. I always fallow your instructions.. tomorrow we are getting ready to make your cinnamon rolls 😋 you are the best happy thanksgiving 🍁
I notice some recipes call for just sweet condensed or all three condensed milk, heavy cream, and cream cheese.. I think this recipe here sounds like a nice mix not too lite not too heavy..
I just made this and was so worried it wasn't going to turn out good, but it came out perfect. Thank you for this recipe. ❤️
It is amazing how this dessert has a lot of variations, like some recipes call for egg yolks only, no cream cheese, etc. This is such a versatile dessert, very easy to make (except for the caramel which requires attention). Yummy!!! Thank you for sharing! ♥️ From the Philippines
My mum was Brazilian. Her recipe (the traditional recipe), was so simple but perfect. It is my go to recipe when taking a dessert to friends and family
Every time I want to make flan I just come back to this video bc the title being "Flan" is SO satisfying, it's like they do on recipe books, none of that adjective-overloaded yt shenanigans. Thanks you for everything John💕
Same. "This is the best ___ you ever will ever bake in your life!" is always so cringe lol
In Puerto Rico, we do add cream cheese to our flan! A blender is often used as well. Great video, John, love all your recipes.❤️
Love watching your videos! This is exactly how I make my flan. Would like to add that it's very important to take it out of the oven while it's still a little jiggly in the center, or else it will overcook, the texture changes, it's not as creamy. And the flan comes out with a lot of little holes on the edges, classic tale of an overcooked custard. Thanks John!
I made this for a party yesterday, and as with all of your recipes, it was easy and delicious! Thanks John!
I made this a few days ago. It came out absolutely, flawlessly smooth. The smoothest flan I have ever made and baking time is only 50 mins. My normal flan recipe doesn’t have cream cheese but this one does and my husband really enjoyed the addition.
Hi... Did your flan brown on the top after 30 min of baking
Flan. I miss this. I had it when I was in Spain, and I've been looking for the perfect recipe. This is the perfect recipe.
I love when you leave the bloopers! It makes it very relatable. Great video!
I made this for my family this past weekend. It was a magnificent flan! My Hispanic family could not stop raving about it.
In Colombia when my family (or myself) make this, we just put all the ingredients at once in a blender and we add a tiny bit of dulce De leche extract and whole milk (equal quantity as the sweet and condensed milk) instead of the cream cheese.

Hola, ¿me puedes explicar cómo lo haces tú/tu familia? La receta de John es buenísima, pero ahorita no tengo ni batidora ni forma de comprar queso crema ni leche evaporada, gracias c:✨
En mi casa lo hacemos con una lata de leche condensada, una lata de leche evaporada, una lata de leche entera, 3 huevos, canela, esencia de vainilla y de dulce de leche. El caramelo lo hacemos mas o menos igual y para cocinarlo solo pongo el recipiente directamente en el orno, no me preocupo por el recipiente con agua. :)
I’m Guatemalan and what I do is that I just add evaporated milk sweetened condensed milk vanilla eggs and heavy whipping cream, for the caramel we don’t add water either just let it melt
@@nicolasherrera8947 Gracias 🥰
I love how he shows the mistakes and beautiful little disasters that happen during cooking❤keep up the good work. I have always enjoued your show and skills 😊
I just made this very easy recipe yesterday. I followed the recipe verbatim, and it was perfect. Thanks John!
Perfect recipe, thorough, & detailed. I love it. Flan came out phenomenal! ♡
I made it yesterday and it turned out really good thank you for the great recipe
John, that looks so good and easy to make 😋. It's on my list of desserts to make
omg it’s natashas kitchen!!
w8 m8 ur here?! hi!
Omg Natasha :)
I kinda feel like Natasha and John will make a lovely couple ❤️❤️❤️☺️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘
@@randomfan3859 He is gay but in another world they could be married
It looks delicious and you make it seem so easy to make. Plus, your tea service set is beautiful. I’ve always loved flan but have never made it. I just might attempt it now. 😊 Thank you!
Just made this recipe for my mom, she loved it! Very rich and the caramel is a nice balance!
OMG your flan looks beautiful and sooo good! I love flan too but haven’t tried it with cream cheese before. Since I have 1 cream cheese in my fridge, I will give it a try. Thanks John! 😄
Hi, John! Here in Brazil we have a very similar dessert its called PUDIM. We do it only with sweetened condensed milk, whole milk and eggs :) Thank you for your amazing job
Thank you so much for this recipe. I tried it - its a flan that is easy to make and yet amazing . Best flan I ever ate
So good 👍 I made this Flan yesterday evening and it came out great and delicious. Thanks for the recipe John. I'll be making it again!
This was perfect! Thank you so much.
Whenever I hear/see Flan, I can't help but think of the line from "Friends" when Monica made a birthday flan for Rachel. Joey said "Happy Birthday, Rachel! Here's some GOO!" I have to agree!
I love that goo. 😂
Perfect timing, I’ve been craving flan. I will definitely give this recipe a try. Thank you! 🙂
@Preppy Kitchen I'm so excited to try this! I love recipes that come perfectly measured out of packages! They are so easy to memorize! Also, fun idea for rice pudding. A few weeks ago, I had some leftover jasmine rice and a can of coconut milk. I added just a bit of sugar and let it all cook together. It was quite possibly the easiest and tastiest rice pudding I have ever had. And it's super adaptable. We made more with regular milk and cocoa powder which was also amazing. The jasmine rice is so light and floral.
I love flan (crème caramel in my house) as well, and have made it often. I have never thought to enrich it with cream cheese; thank you for the inspiration. Edit: I love all the versions of custard; being Southern, the most frequent form is custard pie.
If anyone is thinking of trying this, do it. This flan is so good. Smooth and creamy and just sweet enough. It was decadent and even my boyfriend that hates flan loved this one! I will say not to start it at night unless you like being up until 3 AM 😂 I didn’t have a baking dish/roast pan large enough to fit my cake pan into so I separated the mix into some smaller casserole dishes and it was still perfect! I was so worried I had put too much air in it and that it would be full of holes but nope! I did tap it on the counter a LOT though Definitely the best flan I’ve ever had, and even more so the best flan I’ve ever made! Also a bonus is that it uses the whole egg so I didn’t have to figure out what to do with a bunch of egg whites
Omg! I just made this! And so delicious!!! Thank you for showing this wonderful flan recipe!!❤❤❤
Thank you for all the recipes you share with us. ❤️ love your videos
I made this for my husband’s mom as a birthday treat and she loved it. I substituted coconut evaporated milk to give it an extra flavor note and it was delicious. Had to cook it for over an hour but I think that’s just an issue with my oven. Still, it’s a good idea to check on it so it’s not too jiggly when it comes out. Paired well with fresh raspberries. Oh, the best tip: DEFINITELY strain the mixture as you pour it into the pan - I was shocked how many lumps there were! Thank you!
This looks amazing! Would you ever do a salted caramel pretzel cookie recipe?? 😍😍 love your videos !!
Thank you for the caramel tip 😭 I tried 3 times and the sugar crystallized each time. Tried your method and it worked flawlessly! Definitely try using a heavier bottomed pan also.
I made this recipe and I can’t I literally fell in love! Is was so creamy this was my second time making flan but with cream cheese and when I took that first bite I knew this would be a recipe for the holidays so tomorrow I will be making 2 flans for thanksgiving!!
Hey ! In France, we also call this dessert "crème renversée". Yours looks like paradise. 😍 Claudia
Everyone’s first until they refresh😩
LOLOLOL
Preppy Kitchen love your videos btw keep it up 👍🏽
😭🤚
Haha
@@PreppyKitchen true
Thank you for this recipe.I just made half batch of this earlier and it came out perfect.♥️First time to include cream cheese on a flan since I’m used to eating and making without it and just with condensed milk,egg yolks and evaporated milk/whole milk.I say this is creamier and yes,it’s more tasty than the usual flan.
I've never heard of flan It looks very appealing. I am going to try this weekend.love you John for making things easier to cook .
If you add two tablespoons of corn syrup to the sugar it won't crystallize. Also you can make many different flans by replacing some of the milk with fruit juices. Cream cheese is great even pumpkin flan,with pumpkin pulp. Just experiment. I've been doing it for 50 years.
I’ve already made like 3 of your desserts and they taste so amazing!
First time making a flan and this recipe is totally the best …..so easy and extremely delicious 😋
This looks amazing as always your recipes are the best 😍❤️
Now you have to make a rice pudding that your dad would love!!! ARROZ CON LECHE Cuban Style please.
Pls visit my channel for easy recipes... Just a teen baker😊😊
I really love this flan, it’s always a hit whenever I make it. I think the only tricky part for some would be the caramel, a part from that, it’s the easiest desert to make and probably the fastest one to be eaten! I actually just put all of the ingredients in the blender, if it’s lumpy I strain it.
I made this flan 2 days ago for my mom birthdays and it was amaaaaaaziiiiiiing, we can not stop eating 😻😻😻 Thanks dear John ❤
Flan used to be my father's favorite dessert, brings back a lot of good memories. Thank you for this recipe John, definitely gonna try it. I must say, I've tried a few of your recipes and they turned out perfect. Am sure this will too! 😊
(:
Love your videos! ❤️My mom makes flan for special occasions too! Haha idk how many times I drop or goof something up in the kitchen. So relatable!
Thanks so much! 😊
You just made me laugh when you dropped the can in the bowl. Thanks so much for sharing. 🤣😂😅
😂😂😂😂 we too hahahaha
I’ve actually made it the next day that I saw your video since we were craving some flan 🍮 and I’ve never heard anyone putting cream cheese had to try it and let me tell you it came out soGood and it looks exactly like yours! Thank you for teaching me how to make some good desserts your my fave !!!
Me encanta como explicas todo...y se aprende ingles contigo...una pronunciacion excelente...muchas gracias...a todos nos gusta el flan.
It looks delicioso! I am from México and It is one of my favorite dessert!
The only thing i will never understand is why would someone dislike his videos 😩 I’m totally in love with his recipes and his way of explaining and everything !
So I haven't had flan in about 13 years. Came across your recipe on utube. All I can say is thank you a million thanks. It is to die for.
John I love that you are so imperfectly perfect! Thanks for the bloopers !
You should try a 2 layer tres leches cake with a flan layer in the middle of the 2 cake layers! SO BOMB! 😩😩
That flan is a masterpiece!
I actually made this by your directions and followed your ingredients for my moms bday on valentine's day and it was awesome
I can't thank you enough for all your recipes you made it so easy to me to head to the kitchen and start planning for the night dessert .
My mouth is watering at 1 30 in the morning 🤤 You never fail to impress me John Love from India ❤️
Thank you so much Ishanvi!
Interesting! I've never hear of cream cheese in a flan, sound so yum though! Awesome video John!
Me too. This is definitely not how we do it in the Philippines lol
I think the cream cheese actually replaces a yolk only recipe 🤔
Really lol my grandma always put cream cheese in it
Interesting. Really and truly. I want to try it and see how it compares
This is exactly how I make it, have been for years, only difference I throw everything but the caramel in the blender...
Another Beautiful episode! I follow your recipes often. Recently my 9 year old daughter wanted to bake and she zeroed on your program. And i was so happy ❤️ I was like 'Dear you are on right track'
Ah, that's my absolute favorite dessert! Yours is the same recipe I've made for years, handed down from my grandma. It's very common to add cream cheese to flan in my country, Puerto Rico. We call it flan de queso. I sometimes substitute coconut milk for the evaporated milk and it's flan de queso y coco! Delicious.
Im always skeptical about a non native giving a recipe from a traditional dessert other than his country, but you Mr. John always impress me with your recipes, you made it gracefully, as a mexican women and in love of my traditional dishes, i thank you enormously🙏 I trust your recipes so much, and now i know each one of them is made following the traditional or original ingredients, ofcourse, all with your on point touch👌 Love your channel and your personality. Sending you love from Pomona, Caifornia.😍
He's Mexican.
@@PaulyWally30 I recently knew about this🤗🥰
its common in all latin america and philippines, its spanish of roman origin
John, I love your recipes, and I admire your brave effort to offer them to everyone. The family I cook for raved over this flan and requested another, despite a substitution I made: I used Neufchatel rather than cream cheese. It pushed the taste and richness over the top, but it made the texture a tad "curdy." I don't recommend that substitution. 🙄😀
John,thank you for sharing this! All my friends love it!! It is so yummy! I have learned so much from you.
Thankyou for this great recipe! I made this yesterday and it was really delicious! And also it was very easy to make. Thankyou thankyou for sharing. ❤️
I love that you made a recipe for this! This is my mom's signature dessert that she makes for every birthday and holiday. We call it quesillo instead of flan but it's the same; also, my mom usually blends everything inside a blender to make the custard and has found that to be quick and have the same effect. Lots of love from los Venezolanos
my mom does everything in a blender too! super quick and zero lumps
Oh John you're so funny, you don't know how many times I've drop things into my baked goods but I wasn't being taped. Lol
I made "the Flan" for the first time and i must say it came out like a pro did it. Thank you John, love your channel, Very creative and funny.
I love flan and haven't made it in quite a while. I've never heard of cream cheese added to one, but am definitely going to try this. Thank you for all of the wonderful recipes. You also have a gift for teaching us and walking us though the recipe. Thank you.
Hi I haven’t made it in awhile aswell. Never used cream cheese to the recipe just eggs, milk, ginger and vanilla essence. But definitely gonna try it.
OMG John this flan is HEAVENLY!!! I can't believe how good it is!! Thank you for the recipe!!
I’m gonna go out and get some of those strainers. I Iike the idea of straining things like you do so the texture is even in desserts.
I’m always reminded of that episode of Friends where Monica makes flan whenever I see a flan recipe! To me, flan will forever be a ‘funny’ dessert ❤️😜
Delicious! we baked it this weekend to take to a friend's house, I am super impressed with how it turned out! thank you so much for the video
I love how he always says he likes to put his sweetened condensed milk in his coffee ☕
Me: Usually follows recipes, EXACTLY as I see them made. Also Me: Plop can into bowl, then remove and pour. *Lol, I love that you leave your bloopers in.
Makes the experience more real :)

Hello! I am from Leon, Guanajuato Mexico. However, I live in Nebraska now! GO HUSKERS! LOL! We love adding liquor to deserts. I added some liquor and some pure organic vanilla extract (which contains alcohol as an ingredient I noticed) to your recipe, and it was delicious!! I called it "Flan Envinado!" It was a hit with my family members!
This looks so delicious! Caramel is one of my favorite things to "binge" eat :) Lol
There is no portion control around it...
