W.O.W. — FOOD!

Cooking with Mama Kiteley

Pancakes

PANCAKE

It started with great food, great people and a greater God, and 25 years later it continues!

​

At our first meeting, all the desserts and food were homemade and donated by fellow W.O.W. women. These skilled cooks under the direction of our head chef Mom Kiteley served for over a decade.

​

Since then W.O.W. has grown exponentially and catering help was needed to keep our W.O.W. women happy. We proudly declare we are foodies and enjoy sharing recipes and eating together.

​

Some recipes shared here are from Mom Kiteley’s personal favourites and individuals known for their cooking hands.

​

Check out our shared recipes below and feel free to share your must-try recipes!

Put aside and cool until room temperature. Reservedly coat the square Pyrex pan up to half
of the sides with caramelized sugar. Put the remaining caramelized sugar aside.

​

Beat eggs until frothy. Slowly add 2 cans of sweetened condensed milk while mixing. Slowly
add 1 can of evaporated milk. Pour into a caramel-coated square Pyrex pan. Place the square pan into a Pyrex oblong pan and place in the oven. Pour water into the Pyrex oblong pan to 3/4 full ensuring it is below the square brownie Pyrex pan. Bake for 40 minutes at 350 degrees →

 

DO NOT OVERCOOK.

Insert knife checking texture. When a slight residue (not liquid) on the knife remains, remove it from heat. The key to a great Cuban Flan is removing it from the oven on time when it is smooth and soft, not rubbery in texture. Cool before pouring the remaining caramel mixture on top, refrigerate and serve. Cut in rows of 4 making 16 stout portions. The recipe may be cut in half with less baking time.

​

This recipe does not require flipping the flan but is served from the dish with caramel on the bottom and on the top. The Bain-marie may be adapted to other dish sizes in which an 8″x 8″ Pyrex pan fits.
