coconut

🥗Healthier: unsweetened coconut flakes

💰Cheaper: shredded coconut

Unsweetened flakes reduce sugar content while maintaining flavor.

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil adds a tropical flavor, while margarine is often less expensive.

Start by hydrating the grated coconut with coconut milk and let it rest for a bit.

Melt the butter without boiling it, just enough to make it liquid.

Mix the egg yolks with the melted butter and the hydrated coconut mixture.

Add the sugar and mix well until combined.

If using traditional egg yolks, strain them to avoid the strong egg aroma.

Prepare the baking dish by greasing it with butter and sugar to create a shiny surface.

Pour the mixture into the greased ramekins.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F) and prepare a water bath with warm water (40-50°C).

Place the ramekins in the water bath and bake until set.
