Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, and salt. Stir until well blended.
Add the melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Whisk everything together until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated.
Roll out the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and gently press it into the edges. Trim any excess crust hanging over the sides.
Pour the prepared coconut filling into the pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Place the pie dish on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
Serve at room temperature or chilled. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
