a 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 ° F.
In a dry heavy saucepan cook sugar over moderately low heat, stirring slowly with a fork (to help sugar melt evenly), until melted and pale golden. Cook caramel, without stirring, swirling pan, until deep golden. Pour caramel into a 13-by-9-by-2 inch glass baking dish and tilt dish to coat bottom. Cool caramel.
Melt butter and cool. In a large bowl whisk together flour and water until smooth and whisk in butter and remaining flan ingredients until smooth. Pour custard into baking dish and put dish in a larger baking pan. Add enough water to pan to reach halfway up side of dish and bake custard in middle of oven 1 hour, or until set.
