Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Prepare a baking dish by placing it in a larger pan filled with hot water to create a water bath.

In a saucepan, combine almond milk, sugar, and salt over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, about 3-4 minutes.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.

Gradually add the warm almond milk mixture to the eggs, whisking continuously to prevent curdling.

In a separate bowl, mix cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry, then add to the egg mixture, whisking until smooth.

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until set and a knife inserted comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature.

Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

To serve, run a knife around the edges to loosen the flan, then invert onto a serving plate.

Drizzle with caramel sauce and sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.
