Ingredients for Banana Coconut Custard

  • Half And Half
  • 1 (13.5 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • Coconut
  • Banana
  • Vanilla
  • Salt

How to Make Banana Coconut Custard

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and cornstarch until smooth.
  3. Stir in the coconut milk, banana puree, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gently fold in the shredded coconut.
  5. Butter a 1 1/2-quart soufflé dish. Pour the custard mixture into the prepared dish.
  6. Place the soufflé dish in a larger baking pan. Carefully pour enough hot water into the larger pan to come halfway up the sides of the soufflé dish (this creates a bain-marie for even cooking).
  7. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the custard is set and lightly golden around the edges.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before serving. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours for optimal flavor and texture.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
