Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, and salt until well combined.
Add the eggs to the dry mixture and whisk until smooth.
Pour in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract, and continue whisking until evenly incorporated.
Stir in the shredded coconut, ensuring it's evenly mixed into the batter.
Pour the mixture into the unbaked 9-inch pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Place the pie on the middle rack of your preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set. The edges may have a slight jiggle when gently shaken.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
