Crustless Coconut Pie

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. Mix Ingredients:
    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Add melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth, then stir in the shredded coconut.
  3. Pour and Bake:
    Pour the mixture into the greased pie dish. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Cool and Serve:
    Allow the pie to cool completely so it can set. Slice and serve at room temperature or chilled.

Variations:

  • Tropical Twist: Add crushed pineapple (drained well) or a bit of lime zest for extra brightness.
  • Nutty Upgrade: Stir in ¼ cup chopped macadamia nuts or slivered almonds for added texture.
  • Lighter Option: Substitute part of the milk with coconut milk for a dairy-light version.

Tips:

  • Let the pie cool before slicing to ensure it holds its shape.
  • For a beautiful finish, sprinkle the top with toasted coconut flakes just before serving.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days; best enjoyed slightly chilled or at room temperature.
