Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece pre-made pie crust
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges as desired. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until well blended.
Add the sugar, melted butter, and flour to the beaten eggs, whisking until smooth.
Gradually stir in the milk, vanilla extract, shredded coconut, and ground nutmeg, mixing until all ingredients are evenly combined.
Pour the custard mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Place the pie dish on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for approximately 45–50 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before serving.
Optionally, serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkling of toasted coconut for garnish.
