Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams unsweetened shredded coconut
- 400 ml unsweetened coconut milk
- 8 pieces large egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a muffin tin with ghee to prevent the quindims from sticking.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the unsweetened coconut milk and unsweetened shredded coconut. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the coconut absorbs most of the milk. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, vanilla extract, and salt until creamy and well-combined.
Add the coconut mixture to the egg mixture, and stir until fully incorporated.
Pour the custard mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Place the muffin tin in a larger baking dish half-filled with water to create a bain-marie. This will help cook the quindims evenly and prevent cracks.
Carefully transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffin tin from the water bath and let the quindims cool in the tin for at least 15 minutes before running a knife around the edges to release them.
Transfer the quindims to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
