Frangipani Pie image

An Aussie version of Pineapple Cream Pie, this beautiful dessert pays tribute to the gorgeously aromatic white-&-gold tropical frangipani flower. I love coconut, so I've jazzed up this Golden Circle recipe with coconut milk and shredded coconut...mmmm! I use a simple biscuit crumb crust, but any favourite pastry shell will do. The time for the preparation of the shell is not included.

The frangipani filling was delicious, but the crust was a bit too crumbly. Overall, it was a good pie.

This frangipani pie was a delight! The flavors of the almond and fruit filling were perfectly balanced, and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I would definitely make this pie again.
