Lemon and coconut delicious is a delightful dessert that combines the tangy flavor of lemon and lime with the creamy richness of coconut milk. This recipe is perfect for those who love a zesty and refreshing treat. Follow these simple steps to create a dessert that will impress your family and friends.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches) with butter or oil.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add the lime zest to the butter-sugar mixture and mix well.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure a smooth mixture.
- Sift the self-raising flour into the mixture.
- Fold gently to combine, taking care not to overmix.
- In a separate bowl or jug, combine the milk, coconut milk, lemon juice, and lime juice. Stir to mix thoroughly.
- Gradually add the milk-coconut and juice mixture to the egg-flour mixture. Mix well until you have a smooth batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
- Place the dish in a larger baking pan. Fill the larger pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the baking dish to create a water bath (bain-marie).
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden and set. The dessert should still be a bit wobbly in the center.
- Remove the baking dish from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar.
- Serve warm or chilled, as preferred. Optionally, garnish with a bit more lime zest or a sprinkle of coconut flakes for added texture and flavor.
Tips:
- Ensure that all ingredients are at room temperature before you start mixing to achieve a smoother batter.
- When zesting the lime, be careful to avoid the white pith underneath, as it can add a bitter taste.
- After combining the wet and dry ingredients, mix gently to avoid losing the air incorporated by the eggs.
- Use freshly squeezed lemon and lime juice for the best flavor, as bottled juices can sometimes taste artificial.
- To make the dessert extra special, sprinkle some shredded coconut on top before serving.
- Let the dessert cool completely before refrigerating to enhance its flavors and improve texture.
Congratulations! You've just made a sensational Lemon and coconut delicious dessert. The blend of citrus and coconut flavors creates a refreshing and indulgent experience. Serve this chilled for the best taste and enjoy the compliments from your delighted guests!
