Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 ml full-fat coconut milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk and pure maple syrup. Warm the mixture over low heat until it is just below simmering. Do not let it boil.
In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs thoroughly until they are well-blended.
Slowly add the warm coconut milk mixture to the eggs, whisking constantly, to prevent the eggs from curdling.
Once incorporated, stir in the vanilla extract, almond flour, and kosher salt until completely combined.
Pour the custard mixture evenly into four ramekins or oven-safe dishes.
Place the ramekins in a deep baking dish and fill the baking dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Carefully transfer the baking dish to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the custard is set around the edges but still slightly wobbly in the center.
Remove from the oven and let the custards cool to room temperature before transferring them to the refrigerator to cool completely, about 1-2 hours.
Serve the custards cold, garnished with fresh fruit or a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
