Number Of Ingredients 16

PIE ~ CUSTARD
1 -9 inch pie crust
4 large egg yolks, beaten
1/4 c cornstarch
3/4 c granulated sugar
1/4 tsp ground himalayan sea salt
1 can(s) (14 oz.) coconut milk
1 1/2 c half-and-half
2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 tsp pure coconut extract
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 c sweetened coconut flakes, divided
WHIPPED CREAM
1 c 35% heavy cream
2 Tbsp powdered sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Place parchment paper at the bottom of an unbaked pie shell before adding pie weights. Spread evenly and transfer to a 450ºF preheated oven; bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and carefully remove parchment paper and its contents; let pie cool off completely.
  • 2. In a medium bowl, beat yolks and set aside.
  • 3. In a medium saucepan, add cornstarch, sugar and salt; whisk to combine. Pour in coconut milk and half-and-half; turn the heat to medium and whisk well. Bring the mixture to the point just before simmering. Ladle up some hot mixture and slowly add a little at a time to the yolks whisking constantly; repeat until the yolks are warm. Whisking constantly, transfer the tempered yolks into the saucepan, whisking constantly. Continue whisking until the consistency looks like pudding, about 1 to 1 ½ minutes.
  • 4. Remove from the heat and add butter, coconut extract, vanilla extract and 1 cup coconut flakes; stir to combine. Transfer the custard to the prepared pie shell; level with a spatula. Place wax paper on top making sure to touch the surface to prevent skin formation. Let it cool for 15 minutes before refrigerating it.
  • 5. Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, add the remaining ½ cup coconut flakes. Toss often until the flakes are nice and golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to cool.
  • 6. In the bowl of a stand mixer, add heavy cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract. With the whisk attachment, process until stiff peaks form; set aside.
  • 7. To assemble the pie; gently remove the wax paper and spoon on whipped cream, spreading evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle toasted coconut flakes on top and transfer to the fridge until ready to serve.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall it was still good. The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was creamy and coconutty. I think I would have liked it better if the filling had been a little less sweet.
