Categories     dessert

Yield 1 9 inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups grated coconut
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2 ounces semisweet chocolate
3/4 cup sugar
4 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups milk
4 egg yolks, beaten
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream, whipped (optional)

Steps:

  • For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350F. Spread the grated coconut in a shallow pan or baking sheet. Place in the oven for 1020 minutes (fresh takes longer than packaged), stirring frequently, until lightly browned. Remove from the oven and let cool. Remove 1 1/2 cups of the toasted coconut for the filling.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan melt the butter with the chocolate.
  • Combine the remaining 2 1/2 cups of toasted coconut with the melted butter chocolate mixture. Refrigerate for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until the mixture begins to firm up. Pat the mixture into a 9 inch glass pie plate and chill again for at least 30 minutes before filling.
  • For the filling: Combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepan and whisk until they are thoroughly mixed and powdery looking. Continue whisking while adding the milk, first by droplets, then in a steady stream. Whisk in the egg yolks until completely incorporated.
  • Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly with a whisk or spoon, until it boils. Be sure to reach all over the bottom and sides of the pan with the whisk or spoon to prevent lumps from forming. When it reaches a full boil, reduce the heat to low and continue cooking and stirring for 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and beat in the butter, vanilla and 1 cup of the reserved toasted coconut.
  • Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding, covering it entirely to prevent a skin from forming on the surface. Let cool for 15 minutes. Remove the plastic, stir well and pour the mixture into the pie shell. Whip the cream (if using) just before serving and spread it over the pie. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of toasted coconut over the finished pie.

COCONUT AND LEMON CREAM PIE



Coconut and Lemon Cream Pie image

Coconut and lemon are probably my favorite match. This pie has an unexpected shortbread-like crust made with only coconut oil! The result is flaky, crumbly, and delicious. The creamy curd center gets an upgrade using coconut cream! If you serve immediately, the pie will be a bit messier than if you were to chill it for a few hours.

Time 4h52m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup solid coconut oil
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 pinch salt
¼ cup ice water
2 cups white sugar
1 cup coconut cream
3 eggs
3 egg yolks
3 lemons, zested and juiced
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 pinch salt
3 egg whites
½ cup white sugar
1 pinch salt
1 pinch cream of tartar

Steps:

  • Combine flour, coconut oil, 2 tablespoons sugar, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix until mixture forms large crumbles. Pour in ice water in a steady stream and continue to mix until dough comes together, about 30 seconds.
  • Transfer dough to a large sheet of plastic wrap. Form into a disc and wrap tightly. Chill for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Press 3/4 of the dough into the bottom of a broiler-safe pie plate.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let crust cool completely.
  • Combine 2 cups sugar, coconut cream, eggs, egg yolks, lemon zest and juice, butter, and salt in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until curd thickens and coats the back of a wooden spoon, 10 to 12 minutes. Pour into a bowl and refrigerate until set, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Beat egg whites, 1/2 cup sugar, salt, and cream of tartar in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff, glossy peaks form, 6 to 7 minutes.
  • Pour chilled curd into the cooled crust. Dollop big spoonfuls of meringue all over the curd.
  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Broil in the preheated oven until meringue is lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Chill pie until set, 3 to 24 hours.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons for the best flavor. If you can, try to find organic lemons, as they will have a more intense flavor.
  • Zest the lemons before juicing them. This will help to release the essential oils in the lemon peel, which will give your pie a more complex flavor.
  • Don't overcook the pie filling. The filling should be thick and creamy, but not too firm. If you overcook it, the filling will become tough and rubbery.
  • Chill the pie before serving. This will help the filling to set and will make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream. This will add a delicious creamy richness to the pie.

Conclusion:

This double lemon pie in a coconut crust is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of the tart lemons and the sweet coconut is simply irresistible. With its creamy filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this double lemon pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
