Serves 8

• 1 Cup Coconut Milk
• 40 g Desiccated Coconut
• 2 Eggs
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 25 g Coconut Flour (Good substitute, make your own  – grind desiccated coconut in a coffee grinder)
• 4 Tbsp Butter
• 1/4 Cup Xylitol
• 1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg
• Mascarpone or strawberries and cream to serve

1. Preheat oven to 180 C
2. Place coconut milk, desiccated coconut, eggs, vanilla extract, flour, butter and xylitol in a blender. Blitz until well combined. The mixture may appear to curdle, but this is normal.
3. Pour into a greased pie dish. Sprinkle nutmeg on top and bake for 35 – 40 minutes or until golden brown.
4. To Serve: Sprinkle a little extra nutmeg over the top and serve with Mascarpone or strawberries and cream to serve

Tip: For a fruity flavour, stir 1/4 cups mixed fresh berries or defrosted frozen berries into the batter before baking.
