Have you tried this without eggs?
Don’t you need nutmeg to make it taste like eggnog?
My eggs separated. and it didn’t work.
My eggs cooked when i made this, did i let the milk get to hot or should i have tempered the eggs?
I made this just now and my eggs cooked and i had to strain it out, did i let the milk get to hot maybe or should i have tempered the eggs.
Thanks David
I’m allergic to maple syrup. can honey be used? or do you have another suggestion?
Love eggnog, but will have to use another sweetener to make it low carb!
Can you use powdered coconut milk? or, Can you use raw milk instead?
Yes, raw milk will work just fine.
Thanks looks delicious!!!!
What exactly do you mean by “Heat Coconut milk…how long or to what temp before you add the egg yolks?
no nutmeg??? Have you tried it with freshly grated nutmeg instead of cinnamon?
You can use nutmeg instead of cinnamon if you like. 🙂
I made this this morning for my kids and their friends, served it warm and added nutmeg too! very delicious. Thank you.
Do you remove this from the heat before you add the eggs?
Just made this! Delicious! I’ve been craving eggnog for weeks but hate all the additives in the store bought ones. Thanks for the recipe!
