Recipe
1
Mix sugar and coconut milk in a bowl until the sugar dissolves completely.
2
Whisk in the egg yolks one by one until smooth.
3
Gradually sift in the flour, nutmeg powder, and salt, whisking constantly to avoid lumps to form the batter.
4
Preheat your oven's broiler or top grill. Grease a round baking pan with ghee.
5
Pour a thin layer of batter into the pan and bake under the broiler until golden brown.
6
Remove from the oven, brush the baked layer with a little ghee, pour the next thin layer of batter over it, and broil again.
7
Repeat this layering and baking process until all the batter is used up, ensuring each layer is golden before adding the next.
8
Let the bebinca cool completely in the pan, then carefully unmold, slice, and serve.
