Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the custard is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Let cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.

To unmold, run a knife around the edge of the flan. Place a serving plate over the baking dish or ramekin and invert. The caramel will drizzle over the flan.
