Ingredients
- •100 g Allulose
- •2 tbsp water
- •280 ml evaporated coconut milk
- •320 g ube condensed coconut milk
- •200 ml unsweetened soy milk
- •200 g coconut whipping cream
- •40 g cornstarch (4 tbsp)
- •2½ tsp agar-agar powder
- •1 scoop (30 g) vanilla protein powder
- •⅓ cup Allulose, Monk Fruit, Stevia, or sweetener of choice
- •¼ tsp salt
- •60 g cold vegan butter, cubed
Instructions
- 1Prepare a 20–21 cm (8-inch) flan mold or round cake pan.
- 2Add the Allulose and water to a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until a golden caramel forms. Immediately pour into the mold and swirl to coat the bottom. Let set for about 30 minutes.
- 3Add the evaporated coconut milk, ube condensed coconut milk, soy milk, coconut whipping cream, cornstarch, agar-agar, protein powder, sweetener, and salt to a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
- 4Pour the mixture into a saucepan and cook over medium heat, whisking continuously for about 5 minutes, until thickened. Bring to a gentle boil so the agar activates properly.
- 5Remove from the heat. Add the cold vegan butter and whisk until completely melted and incorporated.
- 6Strain through a fine-mesh sieve for an extra-smooth, silky texture.
- 7Allow the mixture to cool for about 20 minutes, stirring every few minutes to prevent a skin from forming.
- 8Carefully pour the ube mixture over the set caramel layer.
- 9Cover and refrigerate for 12–24 hours, preferably overnight, until completely set.
- 10To serve, run a thin knife around the edges. Invert onto a serving plate and carefully lift off the mold, allowing the caramel to flow over the flan.
VITA Tips
- ✦For the best silky texture and a clean unmolding, chill the flan overnight before serving.
- ✦Make sure the agar mixture reaches a gentle boil — agar needs heat to set properly.
- ✦Leftover flan keeps covered in the fridge for up to 4 days.
