Hi sorry this is probably a silly question but in the list of ingredients it has 1 cup of coconut
I was wondering what type of coconut is it fresh or desiccated etc?
Thanks ?
I believe desiccated 🙂 And always ask anything you need to here x
I made this and it turned out nothing like the picture. It also took much longer than 2hours . It tasted nice but only for the first day, any leftovers that had been in the fridge went hard and it was pretty awful. Not a winner for me.
I haven’t tried this yet, but it sounds like my impossible pie (impossible to stuff it up)
I do mine in the regular oven tho.
While it cooks it separates into layers, making a jelly custard base with a coconut topping.
Looking forward to making it.
Made this just now. So easy. Was I supposed to beat the eggs first and add the butter melted and then add to all dry ingredients. Which is what I did. Also used the whole can of coconut milk and just topped it up to the two cups with milk. 2 1/4 hours. Delicious. ?
Was so delish … served with ice cream
I made this. It was still runny at two hours so I cooked for another hour at which time it was still moist – more like a custard consistency. It probably needed longer again. Didn’t seem it was going to get to slice consistency. Tasted nice but wasn’t right. Did I do something wrong?
too much egg? too little flour? almost 4 hours to firm up in slow cooker.
recipe needs tweaking especially if using sweetened coconut. If using sweetened coconut you cant use the sugar
this is a typical egg custard by itself that would firm up in a regular oven after an hour at 325F.
2 cups milk
2 large eggs, beaten
½ cup white sugar
1 pinch salt
1 dash vanilla extract
1 pinch ground nutmeg (Optional)
with the addition of the flour, butter and coconut there would be enough moisture for it to separate
