Description
A rich, creamy, and perfectly sweetened Keto Coconut Custard Pie that fits seamlessly into a low-carb diet. Made with a flaky optional crust, this dessert features a silky custard base with just the right amount of coconut flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almond flour (optional, for crust)
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour (optional, for crust)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil (optional, for crust)
- 2 tablespoons keto-friendly sweetener (optional, for crust)
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free)
- 4 large eggs
- ½ cup keto-friendly sweetener (erythritol, monk fruit, or allulose)
- ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Optional Crust: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Mix almond flour, coconut flour, melted butter (or coconut oil), and 2 tablespoons sweetener. Press into a greased 9-inch pie dish. Blind bake for 10 minutes. Let cool slightly.
- Whisk Custard: In a bowl, combine coconut milk, heavy cream, eggs, ½ cup sweetener, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until smooth. Fold in shredded coconut.
- Assemble: Pour the custard mixture over the pre-baked crust (or directly into a greased pie dish if crustless). Tap gently to remove air bubbles.
- Bake: Bake for 40–45 minutes until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly. If the crust edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil.
- Cool & Serve: Let the pie cool at room temperature for about 30–60 minutes, then refrigerate for at least an hour before slicing. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, replace heavy cream with coconut cream.
- If you prefer a sweeter custard, taste the mixture before baking and add a little extra keto sweetener.
- Keep a close eye on the baking time to avoid overcooking; the custard should have a gentle wobble when done.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
