Ingredients
- 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup sweetener (like erythritol or monk fruit)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons water
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your flan gets the perfect gentle heat for baking.
- In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin powder over water and let it bloom for about 5 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, eggs, sweetener, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and all ingredients are well blended.
- Heat the bloomed gelatin in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds or until melted, then incorporate it into the coconut milk mixture. Stir well.
- Pour the flan mixture into a greased 9-inch pie dish or individual ramekins for portion control.
- Place the pie dish or ramekins in a larger baking dish. Fill the outer dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the pie dish, creating a water bath.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the flan has set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Once done, remove from the oven and allow to cool at room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for the best results.
- To serve, gently run a knife along the edges of the flan, invert onto a plate, and let it release. Enjoy this creamy, coconut-infused dessert!
