Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
- 1 9 inch pie crust, unbaked
- whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the sweetened shredded coconut, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, and a pinch of salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole milk, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract (if using).
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into the unbaked 9-inch pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
- Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set. Check for doneness by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out clean.
- Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for 1-2 hours before serving.
- Slice and serve the Old-Fashioned Coconut Pie as-is or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
