Steps

1

Cut the pumpkin into pieces and place them in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for about 10 minutes at 800W. Let cool.
2

In another bowl, add all the ingredients except the pumpkin and beat well. Once mixed, add the 2 2/3 cups (400 grams) of cooked pumpkin and mix thoroughly.
3

Pour caramel sauce into the bottom of a microwave-safe mold to cover the base. Add the pumpkin mixture on top.
4

Microwave at 600W for 10 minutes. Let it rest in the microwave for 3 minutes, then microwave for another 9 minutes. Let it rest for a couple more minutes. Insert a toothpick in the center to check if it’s done; if it comes out clean, it’s ready. If not, microwave for 1 more minute at a time until set. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave.
5

Let the flan cool in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, invert it onto a plate.
6

Top with more caramel sauce if you like, and it’s ready to enjoy! A delicious pumpkin flan.
