Coconut custard pie that is impossibly easy to make. Just throw all the ingredients in the blender and you’re good to go.
1 cup flaked coconut
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons margarine or butter
3/4 cup white sugar
Place all ingredients into blender and blend until smooth. Pour into a greased and floured 10″ pie pan and bake at 350F for 45 minutes.
I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to post this recipe; it’s one of my favourites. It’s a very kid-friendly recipe because children can help pour all the ingredients into the blender and watch it blend. I used to like to help my mom make this when I was a kid, and I remember it seemed almost magical the way it forms a crust, then creamy custard, then a layer of coconut on top. The crust isn’t a pie crust in the traditional sense, but there is a thin golden outer layer that lifts out of the pie plate easily. We usually have some kind of dessert on Sundays, and I like to make this recipe on those Sundays when I’m short on time and energy. It’s also great that the ingredients are all typically found in my kitchen in case I haven’t planned a dessert ahead of time. The kids and Tony all seem to enjoy this pie a lot and so do I. They’d probably like a real pie even better, but I am sadly deficient in that area. I just can’t seem to make a decent pie crust! If you like this pie, be sure to check out this pumpkin version we made a while ago; it’s quite yummy too.
My kids like to whine, especially when it comes to the food they eat, but that doesn’t stop me from trying to make tasty and healthy meals for them. Follow along as I share family-friendly recipes and reviews from my picky family members, who I lovingly call “The Whine Critics.”
