Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 piece Pie crust (9-inch, pre-baked)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, sugar, salt, and all-purpose flour. Stir until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add the melted butter, whole milk, and vanilla extract to the eggs, and whisk until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until fully incorporated.
Place the pre-baked pie crust onto a baking sheet to make transportation easier.
Pour the coconut filling into the pre-baked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set. You can insert a toothpick in the center, and it should come out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.
Optional: Top with whipped cream or a sprinkle of toasted coconut for added texture and flavor.
