Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 can coconut milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup erythritol
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9-inch pie dish by lightly greasing it with coconut oil or non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the coconut milk until smooth and well-combined. Ensure there are no lumps from the coconut milk's natural separation.
- Add the eggs to the coconut milk and whisk thoroughly until the mixture is completely uniform and slightly frothy.
- Incorporate the erythritol, stirring until it is fully dissolved into the liquid mixture.
- Add vanilla extract and salt, mixing well to distribute the flavors evenly throughout the custard base.
- Fold in the unsweetened shredded coconut, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the custard mixture.
- Carefully pour the entire mixture into the prepared pie dish, making sure the shredded coconut is suspended throughout the liquid.
- Place the pie dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is lightly golden brown.
- To check doneness, insert a knife or toothpick into the center of the custard. It should come out clean with no liquid residue.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. The custard will continue to set as it cools.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the custard to fully set and develop its flavor profile.
- Optionally, garnish with additional shredded coconut or a light dusting of cinnamon before serving.
Tips
- Use full-fat canned coconut milk for the richest, creamiest texture possible.
- Whisk the coconut milk thoroughly to prevent any separation or lumps in your custard.
- Make sure your eggs are at room temperature for smoother mixing.
- Don't overmix the batter - just combine ingredients until they're well incorporated.
- Check the custard's doneness by the slight golden color and a knife that comes out clean.
- Allow the pie to cool completely before refrigerating to prevent excess moisture.
- For best flavor and texture, chill the pie for at least 2 hours before serving.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
