Full Recipe: minimalistbaker.com/easy-vega...
Flan (also called crème caramel) is a creamy custard dessert with a thin layer of caramel sauce on top. While it’s enjoyed in many regions around the world, flan is thought to have first originated in ancient Rome and is especially popular in Latin America. Many variations now exist, and they often include regional ingredients, such as pineapple juice in Puerto Rico and coffee in Costa Rica.

Agar agar has a tendency to be too firm or “brittle” in set desserts, not creamy and smooth. How does it feel in the mouth for this recipe?

[@Minimalistbaker]

The agar agar is dissolved in this custard, which leaves it super creamy and not brittle at all!

[@chefdeena]

This made my toes wiggle! I'm making this asap! 🤤🤤🤤🍮🍮🍮💚💚💚

I don’t have full-fat coconut milk but I do have three other possible options: Califa almond milk, unsweetened coconut cream,and light coconut milk… Can I use any of these??

[@Minimalistbaker]

You could combine coconut cream + light coconut milk for a consistency similar to full-fat coconut milk 💛

[@WickedLC21]

Does it taste like coconut?

[@Minimalistbaker]

It has a slight coconut taste, but vanilla/caramel are the primary flavors that come through! xo

[@musfirahnadeem2105]

Can this be made with almond milk instead of coconut milk?

[@Minimalistbaker]

The richness from coconut milk really makes it, but almond milk could possibly work with more agar to help it set. It won't be quite the same!

[@KVI_Amoresreadwithme]

Does it make a difference if you do one big pan 😁🙋🏻‍♀️

[@Minimalistbaker]

We haven't tried that, but it should work!

[@transcendentcocreation]

Can I do it without the agar agar I don’t have access to that has anyone tried it without it?

[@Minimalistbaker]

Hi! We’ve only tested it with agar agar and think it’s pretty key for the right texture. But other readers have mentioned trying substitutes. We’d suggest searching the comments to see their results on the recipe page! Here's the link: minimalistbaker.com/easy-vegan-flan-no-bake/

[@adillaafiani6921]
