Why don’t we kick it off with a cup of coffee? Starting the day with a cup of joe is almost like a ritual for the world, but with this recipe, coffee can be taken to the next level with a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast treat. 

Introducing Nicole’s Coffee Flan, a delightful blend of rich coffee flavors and creamy flan, perfect for a unique and exciting morning experience. This special recipe is not only healthy but also incredibly simple to prepare.
Imagine waking up to the aroma of coffee and enjoying it in a smooth, silky dessert form. Here’s how to make it:

Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • ¾ cup of your preferred milk
  • 2 teaspoon of sweetener
  • ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon of instant coffee
A plate of Coffee Flan with milk and eggs.

How to Make Coffee Flan?

  1. Mix the Ingredients: In a microwave-safe mug, combine the egg with milk, sweetener, vanilla extract, and instant coffee. Stir well until all ingredients are fully integrated.
  2. Microwave Magic: Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high in 30-second intervals. Check after each interval, stirring if necessary. It should take about 2 minutes in total, or until the center is no longer liquid.
  3. Check Consistency: Ensure that the flan doesn’t overflow by keeping an eye on it during microwaving. The flan should be set in the center before taking it out.
  4. Cool and Serve: Once cooked, let the flan cool for a bit. For the best results, refrigerate for an hour before serving. This helps to set the flan and intensify the flavors.

For those without a microwave, this recipe can also be baked in a small mold in the oven or cooked in an air fryer until the center is set, yielding equally delicious results.
