  • 4 eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups water
  • 1 (14 ounce) can EAGLE BRAND® Sweetened Condensed Milk (NOT evaporated milk)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Pour into ungreased 1 1/2 -quart ring mold* or 9-inch round or square baking pan, tilting to coat bottom completely. In medium bowl, beat eggs; stir in water, EAGLE BRAND®, vanilla and salt.

Loosen side of flan with knife; invert onto serving plate with rim. Garnish as desired. Refrigerate leftovers.
