Baked leche flans are the best. The consistency, texture, taste... It's just so much more tastier!!!!

Thank you for sharing your baked Filipino leche flan, I have been steaming mine and I always thought to myself if I can bake it and how because I have a hunch that it is better to bake than steam. By the what does this mean "Ka hiyain elders mo kumuha ito kabuhungan!!!!!"? whatever she sounds so negative, forgive her maybe she or could be he is going through a lot of problems.

Somebody's over reacting over leche flan. Baked or steam, it does taste the same. In the Philippines not everybody has oven to use for baking and here in Canada, steamer is not common in a simple kitchen like what I have. I was born and race in the Philippines and very familiar with this dessert...

Anyway I thank whoever posted this recipe, this is very helpful.

Thank you so much for the recipe! So easy to make but the best leche flan I've ever done. Much better than my mom's recipe! Thanks again for sharing......

I'm going to try this recipe this weekend for my mom's birthday. I'm thankful that people post oven method of cooking it because its easier for beginners like me. And most people abroad would appreciate it. kasi mas convenient gawin.

Razielle this is the way I do my flan as well, I oven steamed it, magkaiba lang tayo ng quantity ng gatas and been doing it for 12 years. Our kababayan loved it here in USA as well as my non-Filipino friends. Sa iyo Sali't saling sarado ang pag iiisip why not keep quiet, kung ayaw mo ng recipe ni Razielle then shut up. Bakit ba ka naiingit mabuti nga nag se share ng kaalaman nya. Kung type mo mag share ka rin wag ka ng marami pang sinasabi dyan. Sama ng ugali mo. Keep it up Raziele. Kung wala kayong llanera pwede yong baking pan na square that's how I do it. Kasi yong nabili kung llanera dito sa Los Angeles me mga tagas sa gilid kaya ok na yang any baking pan sa bahay natin. Kelangan talagang me mas malaking pan na me tubig sa ilalim para hindi masunog ang flan that's how I bake cheese cake also. Ok itong site ng me matutunan tayong mga lutong Pinoy atbp. Walang tama or maling way ng pagluto ng flan as long as masarap oven baked man or steam sa stove top kung okay sa inyo then do it. Pwede nyong dagdagan ng ingredients or bawasan pwedeng mag experiment. Salamat Razielle

Although, a few have stood by Sali't saling for speaking her mind and many have stood by Razielle and have applauded her for seeking and finding a more practical way of making a "Traditional" dish. Regardless, neither way of cooking is "wrong", 1) is old world cooking ways, 2) is more modern way of cooking. What is most important is the "end" result, "right"?!?!?! Think of this, there is even different ways and some with a little different ingredients and a little different end result on "traditional" pinoy dishes... Depending on what region and/or barrio the cook is from!... Open your hearts to accept changes and let the love in

I believe this recipe originated from the Philippines. Take note that every recipe is being modified anyway, be it the ingredients, the preparation or the cooking method; it is STILL a FILIPINO Leche Flan. This recipe is great! Mabuhay ang PILIPINO!

I just made a leche flan based on this recipe using oven... And WOW!!! Perfect!!! Thanks so much!!!! You are great... To those who do not like the recipe, please just don't do it and just never mind the recipe instead of saying bad comments...

The best flan I have ever had!! I'm making this the second time. Thank you for your recipe :))))

There's a difference of traditional, old, new and/or just keeping with modern technologies, what if you live in the jungle have to rub sticks to start a fire and cook over branches oppose to using a gas burning stovetop but the outcome is the same?

I guess you can say it's traditional, but would be funny if you cooked adobo or something in the backyard using branch fueled fire, even though you have a very convenient gas stove in the kitchen using the same ingredients with the same outcome just to say I cooked it the traditional way(which is insane), just because my mom did it that way in the PI growing up without gas.

But if it was lechon, no oven would have the same outcome of slowly cooking/rotating baboy over coals (maybe this could be called traditional, or also the only way to get great flavor and evenly crisp skin).

Just had to throw my 2 cents in.

Sabi nga nila..Kung wala ka naman magandang sasabihin eh wag ka na lang magsalita lalo na kung may mga taong masasaktan. Kaya syo sali't saling dapat di ka nalang nag comment Kung pipintasan mo lng yun taong nag post ng recipe na ito. Hindi mo nga sya kaano ano pero nakuha mo pa Gawin yan. I loved to cook esp mga desserts and leche flan ang pinakamadali I-prepare pag may mga parties, Kung pano sya niluto baked or steamed basta Lasang leche flan ang outcome eh ok na yun. It's just a matter of preference and availability ng gagamitin mo na lutuan...Kung walang steamer eh y not mag oven n vice versa.

OMG! The best! Love it. Just followed your procedure and it's awesome! Thank you so much.

ano ba yan...? nakikigaya na nga lng ng receipe may corrections pa? It's her style and it was great... kisa mag tiis sa mga ready-made in the market...

Bain -marie or baking in a pan with water is actually steaming except not on the stove top. So its like mincing words lang...steaming pa rin
