To make the caramel, melt the sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until it turns golden brown.
Pour the caramel into a baking dish and swirl it around to coat the bottom and sides of the dish.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the mixture into the caramel-coated baking dish.
Place the baking dish into a larger baking pan.
Fill the larger pan with water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the baking dish. This creates a water bath and ensures the flan cooks evenly.
Bake at 350°F for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the flan cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
To serve, run a knife around the edges of the flan to loosen it from the dish. Place a serving dish on top of the baking dish and invert the flan onto the serving dish. The caramel will drizzle over the top.
