Description
Indulge in irresistible Thai coconut custard, a dessert you’ll crave repeatedly. Experience the perfect blend of flavor and texture in every bite!
1 can (13.5 oz) of coconut milk (full-fat is best for creaminess)
1 cup of sugar (you can use coconut sugar for a deeper flavor)
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (adds a lovely fragrance)
1/2 teaspoon of salt (to balance the sweetness)
1/4 cup of cornstarch (for thickening—always whisk it well!)
1/2 cup of shredded coconut (unsweetened, for added texture, optional)
Fresh fruit or toasted coconut for garnishing (optional)
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Beat together until smooth.
Gradually sprinkle in the cornstarch while whisking continuously to avoid lumps.
Fold in shredded coconut gently if using.
Pour the custard mixture into a greased 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Bake for about 35-40 minutes until set, with a slight jiggle in the center.
Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
