Time 2h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 large eggs
2 cups store-bought frozen grated coconut, thawed
11/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup buttermilk, well shaken
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 deep-dish unbaked 9-inch pie shell, homemade or purchased

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In the bowl of an electric mixer and using the whisk attachment, beat the eggs, coconut, sugar, buttermilk, butter, flour and vanilla until well combined. Your mixture may look curdled but keep beating on high until it comes together (it will still be chunky from the coconut).
  • Pour the filling into the pie shell. Bake until lightly browned, the center of the pie doesn't jiggle when shaken lightly and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out moist but not covered with custard, 45 to 50 minutes. The coconut will rise to form a top crust during baking. Set the pie on a wire rack and cool completely before serving, about 1 hour.

Yield serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
3 large eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk, well shaken
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups grated coconut, fresh or frozen
1 deep-dish unbaked 9-inch pie shell, homemade (page 182) or purchased

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the sugar and flour with the melted butter. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Add the buttermilk and vanilla and combine again. Stir in the coconut.
  • Pour the filling into the prepared pie shell. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until lightly brown and the center of the pie doesn't jiggle when shaken lightly. A toothpick inserted into the center of the pie should come out moist but not covered with custard. The coconut will rise to form a top crust during baking. Set the pie in the pan on a wire rack and cool completely before serving.
  • From Gwen
  • The coconut rises to the top to form a crunchy topping.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh coconut and coconut milk will give your pie the best flavor. If you can't find fresh coconut, you can use unsweetened shredded coconut and coconut cream.
  • Don't overcook the pie: The filling should be set, but not too firm. Overcooking will make the pie dry and crumbly.
  • Chill the pie before serving: This will help the filling to set and the flavors to develop.
  • Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream: This will add a delicious and creamy touch to the pie.

Conclusion:

Lisa's French Coconut Pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy coconut 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 to make, give Lisa's French Coconut Pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
