Topping
Directions
Combine the heavy cream and coconut cream in a saucepan over medium heat, Heat for 3-4 minutes until it starts to simmer.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, egg yolk, Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener and salt together. Add half of the warm cream mixture, whisking continuously as you combine.
- Then slowly pour and whisk this mixture back into the pan of hot cream.
- Cook another 5 minutes on medium heat, while whisking continuously, until the mixture thickens.
Remove from heat and whisk in the butter, extracts and the xanthan gum. Whisk briskly to incorporate. Then add the shredded coconut and combine.
Give the custard one more stir and then pour into the prepared pie crust and smooth until even. Refrigerate 3-4 hours or overnight.
Topping
Place heavy whipping cream in a large, chilled bowl and add Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener and Liquid Monkfruit drops or extract. Beat until the cream makes stiff peaks and holds its shape.
- Spread over the chilled coconut pie and sprinkle on the toasted coconut flakes.
