My favorite recipe for flan. Can I use this for a pumpkin flan? How much pumpkin should I add? Thank you!

I am sorry for the confusion, but we don't put water when we caramelize the sugar. This is a dry method, melt it on the stovetop slowly on low heat. It will take a while but it results in a smoother, less grainy caramel than the wet method where you add water.

Girlfriend, you didn't mention to add water into the sugar!!! Your video and instructions didn't include water with the sugar. It took me more than 20 minutes to melt the sugar in my 3 foiled llaneras. The mixture is good which is a breeze. The sugar part of it which is supposed to be the easy one turned into a nightmare!. Kindly update your recipe. I would appreciate it.

I'm sorry that the method is not working well for you. The microwave's wattage differs according to brand so time might vary. Here is the full tutorial where I do mention that and other tips. https://www.kawalingpinoy.com/caramelize-sugar-microwave/

Pls specify the proper temperature and exact time of minutes and amount of water and sugar when using microwave oven.. even 6 minutes made the sugar too dark and burned already!

Yes, you can. Make sure gentle heat so the flan would be smooth. About 40 minutes but check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center. If it comes out clean, the flan is ready πŸ™‚

So so yummy! The flan came out so creamy and rich! I baked it in an 8 inch cake pan and it was done after 40 minutes for me.
