Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Shredded sweetened coconut
- 0.75 cups Sugar
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 9-inch Pre-made pie crust
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sugar and flour to ensure they are evenly distributed.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave and set aside to cool slightly.
In a larger bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Gradually add the sugar and flour mixture, mixing well.
Stir in the melted butter and mix until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and milk, and continue whisking until fully incorporated.
Fold the shredded sweetened coconut into the mixture until evenly combined.
Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish if not already prepared. Pour the coconut filling mixture into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Serve the coconut pie as-is or with a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat. Enjoy!
