Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light corn syrup
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 whole large eggs
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups shredded sweetened coconut
- 1 whole unbaked 9-inch pie crust
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the granulated sugar, light corn syrup, and unsalted butter. Stir continuously until the butter has melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until lightly frothy. Gradually stir in the milk and vanilla extract.
Slowly add the slightly cooled sugar and butter mixture to the eggs, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from cooking.
Stir in the shredded sweetened coconut until evenly combined.
Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the filling into the crust, spreading it out evenly.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is a golden brown.
Let the pie cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving, allowing the filling to fully set.
Slice, serve, and enjoy this classic syrup coconut pie with friends and family!
