Citrus & Coconut Puddings

Ingredients

  • Melted butter, to grease
  • 3 eggs, separated
  • 1/2 cup caster sugar
  • 1/3 cup plain flour
  • 1/4 cup desiccated coconut
  • 1 tbsp finely grated lemon rind
  • 1 tbsp finely grated lime rind
  • 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 270ml coconut milk
  • Icing sugar mixture, to dust

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Brush six 250ml (1-cup) capacity ramekins or ovenproof dishes with melted butter to lightly grease.
  2. Use an electric beater to beat together the egg yolks and sugar in a large bowl until thick and pale. Use a metal spoon to fold in the flour, coconut, lemon and lime rind, lemon and lime juice, water and coconut milk until combined.
  3. Use clean electric beaters to beat the egg whites in a clean, dry bowl until soft peaks form. Fold the egg white into the lemon mixture until well combined. Spoon into prepared dishes.
  4. Place the dishes in a roasting pan. Pour enough boiling water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the dishes. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centres comes out clean. Dust with icing sugar to serve.
