sweetened condensed milk

evaporated milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: regular milk

Almond milk is lower in calories and can be a dairy-free substitute.

caramel sauce

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar + water

Honey provides sweetness with fewer calories.

vanilla extract

🥗Healthier: vanilla bean paste

💰Cheaper: vanilla essence

Vanilla essence is a more affordable option with similar flavor.

In a bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.

In a small saucepan, combine 1 tbsp sugar and 1 tsp water to make caramel; heat until sugar dissolves and turns golden brown.

Pour the caramel into the bottom of a microwave-safe dish, swirling to coat evenly.

Pour the egg mixture over the caramel in the dish.

Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a microwave-safe lid.

Microwave on medium power for 1 minute to 1 minute and 20 seconds, checking for doneness; the flan should be set but slightly jiggly in the center.
