Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup bourbon (optional)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • Grated nutmeg (optional garnish)
  • Cinnamon sticks (optional garnish)
  • Coconut flakes (optional garnish)

Instructions

  • Separate the egg yolks from the whites into two separate bowls.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the sugar until they become pale yellow and slightly thickened.
  • In a saucepan, combine the coconut milk, coconut cream, maple syrup, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is steaming but not boiling.
  • Slowly drizzle about 1/2 cup of the hot coconut milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly.
  • Pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining coconut milk mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon. Do not boil!
  • Pour the eggnog mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl. Stir in the vanilla extract and bourbon (if using). Let it cool to room temperature.
  • In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  • Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the cooled eggnog mixture.
  • Cover the eggnog and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld. Before serving, whisk gently to recombine. Garnish with grated nutmeg, cinnamon sticks, or coconut flakes, if desired.
