Ingredients
Scale
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup caramel sauce
1/8 tsp flaky sea salt (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of caramel sauce into the bottom of each cup. Tilt the tin to spread the caramel evenly; set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, heavy cream, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth and well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir just until blended; a few small lumps are okay.
Divide the batter among the cups, filling about 3/4 full. If you'd like more caramel presence, drizzle a tiny swirl of caramel into the center of each batter portion.
Optional water bath: place the muffin tin inside a larger pan and pour hot water around the tin until it reaches halfway up the sides.
Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. The tops should spring back when lightly touched.
Cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes, then transfer to a rack to finish cooling. If you love a warm, melty bite, serve them slightly warm with a drizzle of extra caramel and a pinch of sea salt.
Notes
These velvet caramel flan muffins blend custard-like tenderness with ribbons of caramel, offering a cafe-worthy treat that’s indulgent yet approachable for everyday mornings.
