Brazilian quindim

A Brazilian dessert with African and Portuguese influences. Made of egg yolks and coconut.

✨ 12g (2 tablespoons) coconut flakes

✨ 3 egg yolks

✨ 25g (2 tablespoons) xylitol

✨ butter or extra virgin coconut oil

Mix everything except the butter/oil in a bowl and pour into buttered or oiled muffin tins (they have to be made of metal or a muffin silicone tray, don’t use paper muffin liners) with some xylitol sprinkled on them. Bake at 180°C (preheated) in a bain-marie. The recipe says for 30 minutes but it took 1 hour in mine and I think I could still bake it a little longer. 🙃
