  • 2 cups / 500 ml coconut cream (or heavy cream)
  • 5 egg yolks (large)

How to cook it

Cooking cue

Cook eggs just until set so they stay tender instead of rubbery.

  1. Preheat the oven to 425F and line or lightly grease the pan you plan to use.
  2. 1. Halve the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape the seeds into a mixing bowl; warm the coconut cream with the empty pod in a saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer, then remove from heat and cool 15 minutes (stir in vanilla extract now if using instead of the bean).
  3. 2. Beat the egg yolks with the powdered erythritol and vanilla seeds using an electric mixer for 2-3 minutes until pale, frothy, and doubled in volume.
  4. 3. Gradually whisk the lukewarm cream into the yolk mixture using a balloon whisk, blending until smooth.
  5. 4. Heat your oven to 325°F, then pour custard into ramekins filling them just over three-quarters full and set them in a casserole dish; add boiled water to the dish until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
  6. 5. Bake approximately 40 minutes until the tops turn golden and the centers still jiggle slightly, then remove and cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  7. 6. Dust the chilled custards with golden erythritol and caramelize with a kitchen torch, or broil on the top oven rack for about 2 minutes watching closely to prevent burning.
  8. Cook eggs just until set so they stay tender instead of rubbery.
  9. 7. Let the topping harden in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before serving; do not touch the hot sugar until fully set.
  10. Taste and adjust the seasoning at the end, then serve while everything is hot or freshly chilled.
