Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large Egg yolks
- 100 grams Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 100 grams Erythritol
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 milliliters Coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a medium bowl, combine the shredded coconut with the coconut milk and let it sit for about 10 minutes to soften.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Allow it to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks until they are well-blended and slightly frothy.
Add the erythritol to the egg yolks and whisk until fully dissolved and the mixture becomes pale yellow.
Stir in the melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt to the egg yolk mixture and mix well.
Add the coconut milk and shredded coconut mixture to the egg mixture, stirring until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Lightly grease a muffin tin or individual silicone molds with butter or non-stick spray.
Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared molds, making sure to include both the liquid and solid parts of the mixture.
Place the molds on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the quindins are set but slightly jiggly in the center.
Remove from the oven and allow them to cool in the molds for about 10 minutes.
Carefully run a thin knife around the edges to loosen the quindins, then invert them onto a serving plate.
Let them cool completely to room temperature or refrigerate before serving to allow the flavors to develop further.
