Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges decoratively.
-
In a medium bowl, mix together the shredded coconut, sugar, flour, and salt until well combined. Spread this mixture evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully combined. Pour this custard mixture over the coconut layer in the pie crust.
-
Carefully transfer the filled pie dish to the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes or until the center is set and the top is golden brown. You can cover the edges of the crust with foil if they start to brown too quickly.
-
Once the pie is done baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack. For best results, refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours before serving.
-
To serve, slice the Loco Coconut Pie into wedges and garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
