Canistel - Pouteria campechiana, Egg Fruit

🍴 Canistel Breakfast Mash

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe canistel (egg fruit), peeled and seeded
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • Ground cinnamon, to taste

Instructions

  1. Scoop the canistel flesh into a bowl.
  2. Mash thoroughly with a spoon, adding milk gradually until smooth and custard-like.
  3. Serve immediately, topped with a light sprinkle of cinnamon.

🌿 About the plant:
Canistel (Pouteria campechiana), often called Eggfruit, has dense yellow flesh with a flavor reminiscent of sweet potato, pumpkin, and custard. It is naturally rich and filling, which is why it is often used mashed, blended, or cooked.

🌱 In the garden:
Canistel is a tough, drought-tolerant tropical fruit tree that performs well in warm climates. It prefers full sun, well-drained soil, and minimal fuss once established. Compact growth and heavy production make it well suited for edible landscapes and container growing.
