Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare 6 ramekins and a large roasting pan for a water bath. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, add the granulated sugar and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar melts and turns into a golden caramel (about 5-7 minutes). Be careful not to burn it.
Quickly divide the caramel evenly among the 6 ramekins, swirling each ramekin to coat the bottom. Set aside to allow the caramel to harden slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the brewed coffee, fat-free evaporated milk, eggs, vanilla extract, granulated sugar substitute, and a pinch of salt until smooth and well combined.
Pour the custard mixture evenly into the prepared ramekins over the hardened caramel.
Place the filled ramekins into the large roasting pan and pour enough hot water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins, creating a water bath.
Carefully transfer the roasting pan to the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the flans are set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool to room temperature. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
To serve, run a knife around the edges of each flan and invert onto a serving plate to release the caramel topping. Serve chilled and enjoy!
