This recipe for sugar-free Keto coconut custard could not be easier to make, and every bowl has just 3g net carbs.
I saw the most adorable thing on Facebook today.
It's a trio of child musicians from Mexico named Los Bañales Juniors. (video below) These three have won my heart.
I love the impromptu horse accompaniment in the background.
The kids just smile and play on. They are so cute. I can't even handle it.
But let's return to the non-cute world for a minute and talk about low carb egg custard.
So far I've posted recipes for low carb egg custard, lemon custard and flan. Today's recipe is in that same family. But it uses coconut milk as its base, so it's lighter than the other cream based custards. It tastes like vanilla egg custard with just a hint of coconut. It's really good.
But now I must get back to the cuteness. Adiós!

My new favorite recipe. I modified it a little to my taste but overall I don’t think anyone can really mess this recipe up. I used 4 tbsp of Swerve instead of 3 and I used a full teaspoon of vanilla. I then put unsweetened coconut on the bottom of the dish and poured the mixture over it. It came out so creamy and just the perfect amount of sweetness.

What a good idea to add the unsweetened flaked coconut. That sounds delicious.

Followed the recipe but doubled the vanilla. Excellent and I'll be making it again and again! I also used silicone cupcake molds because I didn't have enough ramekins. It made 12 molds perfectly.

I followed the recipe, but we felt it was a bit too sweet. However, make no mistake this recipe is rich, creamy and elegant. It's less rich when served cold. I like mine with a bit of nutmeg on top.
