Coconut Macaroon Crumble

Servings: 6-8 people

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 can (14 oz) full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

To make the coconut macaroon crumble topping:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the unsweetened shredded coconut, granulated sugar, and salt.
  • Add the softened butter and mix until the mixture forms a crumbly dough.
  • Stir in the chopped macadamia nuts.

To make the coconut cream filling:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, coconut milk, egg yolks, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the mixture into 6-8 ramekins or small baking dishes.

Assemble the crumble:

  • Divide the coconut macaroon crumble topping evenly among the ramekins, spreading it over the coconut cream filling.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is set.

Serve warm with a dusting of confectioners' sugar.
