How To Make coconut custard pie

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 425 degree F. Bake pie shell for 6 minutes. Cool slightly. Toast 1/2 cup coconut. Either in oven on a sheet pan, or I do mine in a skillet on the stove top. Stirring frequently so as not to burn, for about 5 minutes. Set aside.
  • Step 2
    In a bowl, beat eggs. Add remaining ingredients, except coconut. Mix well. Stir in the 1 cup of coconut.
  • Step 3
    Pour into pre cooked pie shell. Sprinkle toasted coconut on top. Bake for 10 minutes. I then cover crust with foil, so not to burn. Reduce oven to 350. Bake 25 - 30 minutes longer; or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Step 4
    Cool, and refrigerate leftovers.
