Print Recipe
US Customary - Metric

Ingredients

  • 6 medium egg yolks
  • 6 tablespoons allulose or other low carb sweetener
  • 6 tablespoons desiccated coconut unsweetened

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/350F degrees.
  • Butter two 4 inch ramekins.
  • Place the egg yolks and sweetener in a bowl and whisk well.
  • Gradually add the coconut and whisk thoroughly.
  • Place the ramekin dishes in a baking dish and add hot water to the dish until it reaches halfway up the sides of the molds. This creates a water bath, which helps the Quindim cook evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30-40 minutes, or until the tops are set and golden brown.
  • Remove the quindim from the oven and let them cool in the molds for a few minutes. Then, carefully remove them from the molds and let them cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, refrigerate them for at least a couple of hours before serving.
  • Eat and enjoy!

Notes

Makes 2 servings.
We use a ramekin dish but these can be made in a donut pan too for a cute shape.
