This old-fashioned coconut pie recipe is a classic dessert. It\u2019s smooth and sweet, with some texture from the shredded coconut.\u00a0The best part about the pie is just how easy and quickly it comes together. The filling takes mere minutes, and, if you use a premade pie crust, that\u2019s all the prep needed!<\/p>\n
You’ll need to give the pie up to an hour to bake, plus some cooling time, so be prepared to kick back and relax while the oven does all the busy work for you. If you don\u2019t already love coconut, this is one of those coconut recipes<\/a> that might change your mind.<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. On a lightly floured surface, roll the pie dough to a circle about 1\/8-inch thick.<\/p>\n Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim the crust to about 1\/2 inch beyond the rim of the plate, and flute the edges.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip<\/em>: It\u2019s common to roll out pie dough<\/a> to 1\/8-inch thickness, which is about the thickness of a quarter.<\/p>\n In a large bowl, combine the milk, sugar, coconut, eggs, flour, butter and vanilla.<\/p>\n Pour the mixture into the crust.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip<\/em>: Before pouring in the mixture, you can brush the crust with egg whites to keep the crust from getting soggy.<\/p>\n Bake the pie for 45 to 50 minutes, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the pie cool to room temperature on a wire rack.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/em> If the crust is browning too much during the cooking, place some aluminum foil around the edges to protect it or use a pie shield.<\/p>\n Thanks to the eggs and dairy in the filling, you need to store coconut pie in the refrigerator. It will last up to three days in the fridge.<\/p>\n Serve coconut pie with fresh sweetened whipped cream<\/a>, whipped topping or even vanilla ice cream. Drizzle it with salted caramel sauce<\/a> or homemade chocolate sauce<\/a>, and top with extra toasted coconut for good measure.<\/p>\n To make dough for a single-crust pie, combine 1-1\/4 cups all-purpose flour and 1\/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Cut in 1\/2 cup cold butter until the mixture becomes crumbly. Gradually add 3 to 5 tablespoons ice water, tossing with a fork until the dough holds together when pressed. Shape the dough into a disk, then wrap and refrigerate for one hour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If you love coconut, this old-fashioned coconut pie is tough to beat.

Where did all these 5-star ratings come from? Either you used a different recipe or you haven't really made it. Or maybe the recipe got changed before I made it. One and one-half cups milk is waaay too much liquid! This will run out of a 9\" pie crust and all over your counter and all over your oven. And even if you don't use all the filling you have made, the filling is so thin and watery it will soak into the bottom crust and the crust won't get cooked. Also it won't taste good, because it is so dilute! How do I know? Because I made it last night. What a mess! After my folly I checked this recipe against my old standby, Lady Bird Johnson's coconut pie. Her recipe calls for 1\/3 cup buttermilk, and that's the only liquid. She tops it after baked with whipped cream.
