Cooking Process & Method

1. Preparing the Bone Marrow for a Creamy Base

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

2. Place marrow bones on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes until soft and golden.

3. Scoop out the marrow, let it cool slightly, and blend until smooth.

2. Making the Caramel Layer (Low GI Version)

1. In a saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of coconut sugar or raw honey over low heat until it turns into a light caramel.

2. Pour into flan molds or ramekins, tilting to coat the bottom.

3. Let cool while preparing the flan mixture.

3. Making the Flan Custard

1. In a saucepan, gently heat coconut milk over low heat until warm (do not boil).

2. Whisk in monk fruit sweetener, cinnamon, vanilla, and blended bone marrow.

3. In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks, then slowly temper in the warm coconut milk mixture while whisking continuously.

4. Baking the Flan

1. Strain the custard through a fine sieve for a smooth texture.

2. Pour into the prepared caramel-coated ramekins.

3. Place ramekins in a water bath (bain-marie) by filling a baking dish with hot water halfway up the sides.

4. Bake at 325°F (163°C) for 35-40 minutes until just set but slightly jiggly in the center.

5. Chilling & Final Touches

1. Remove from oven and let cool at room temperature.

2. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours (or overnight) for the best texture.

3. Run a knife around the edges and invert onto a plate to serve.

6. Serving & Garnishing
