Description
A delicious paleo, low-sugar custard perfect for the holiays or any time of the year.
Ingredients
- 2 cups acorn squash
- 4 eggs OR 4 egg yolks and 1.5 tablespoons grass-fed gelatin, blended in 1/3 cup water (instructions below)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons ghee or coconut oil
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3 teaspoons raw, unfiltered honey or maple syrup
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350.
If you are going to make this custard without egg whites (we leave them out due to allergies), then first whisk together the grass-fed gelatin powder with the water in a cup, and let sit for a minute to thicken or bloom. If you are using whole eggs, then no advance preparation is needed.
Combine all ingredients into a mixing bowl and blend well with an immersion blender.
Pour into a greased pan and smooth with a spatula.
Bake at 350 for 50-60 minutes. When a toothpick inserted comes out clean, the custard is done. Allow to cool on a cooling rack for 20 minutes.
Drizzle raw honey or maple syrup over each slice. Yum!
