Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
Cut in the cold unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together.
Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a circle about 12 inches in diameter.
Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie dish, trim the edges, and crimp as desired.
In a mixing bowl, combine the freshly grated coconut, sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, eggs, vanilla extract, and ground nutmeg. Whisk until smooth.
Pour the coconut filling into the prepared pie crust.
Place the pie on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
Allow the pie to cool completely at room temperature before serving.
Slice and enjoy your Fresh Coconut Pie!
