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

  1. 1Prepare a 20–21 cm (8-inch) flan mold or round cake pan.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 5Remove from the heat. Add the cold vegan butter and whisk until completely melted and incorporated.
  6. 6Strain through a fine-mesh sieve for an extra-smooth, silky texture.
  7. 7Allow the mixture to cool for about 20 minutes, stirring every few minutes to prevent a skin from forming.
  8. 8Carefully pour the ube mixture over the set caramel layer.
  9. 9Cover and refrigerate for 12–24 hours, preferably overnight, until completely set.
  10. 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.
