Steps:
- To make the caramel, bring 1 cup of sugar and ½ cup of water to a boil over medium heat and boil until it gets a deep amber color, about 8-10 minutes.
- Pour the hot caramel into the previously buttered flan molds or ramekins and try to distribute it evenly on the bottom of the molds.
- Combine the pineapple juice with the sugar and tapioca starch in a small saucepan over low heat and bring to a boil, keep an eye on it as it is prone to boil over, let simmer until it begins to thicken, about 5-8 minutes, remove and cool completely.
- Pre-heat oven to 350 F
- Beat the eggs on low speed; slowly mix in the pineapple mixture, the milk, the vanilla, and the rum until well combined
- Strain the flan mixture and pour into the caramel coated molds.
- Place the flan molds in the oven dish with water - the water should cover at least ½ of the height of the ramekins - and bake until the flans solidify, about 45-50 minutes.
- Let the flans cool completely, then refrigerate for a couple of hour.
- To help release the flans place the ramekins in a bowl with warm water before serving to melt the caramel and loosen the flan.
- Serve alone or accompanied by fresh berries or with caramelized pineapple slices
- Pour a spoonful of brown sugar over a pineapple slice and place under the broiler until the sugar begins to bubble and caramelize.
