Irresistible Coconut Cream Pie image

My husband and I grow 500 acres of wheat on the farm his family homesteaded in 1889. I grind my own flour and love to use it in this recipe. The easy, pat-in crust has a rich grain flavor. It's irresistible filled with old-fashioned coconut cream and topped with a fluffy meringue. -Roberta Foster, Kingfisher, Oklahoma

The crust was a little soggy. I think I would blind bake it next time.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time.
