COCONUT PIE
Watching my mother cook from scratch, I hardly knew that anything was available "pre-made" until I'd left home. One of Mom's best desserts is her creamy old-fashioned coconut pie. A rich slice is true comfort food. -Mary McGuire, Graham, North Carolina

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Press out folds in crust. Press crust into 9-inch glass pie plate. Trim and crimp edges. Bake crust until light golden, about 9 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
- Melt butter in heavy medium saucepan over low heat. Add sugar and stir until mixture is heated through. Transfer to bowl. Add eggs, lemon juice and vanilla and whisk to combine. Stir in 1 1/2 cups coconut.
- Pour filling into crust. Bake until filling is deep golden brown and set, about 40 minutes. Cool on rack. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before continuing.) Garnish with shredded coconut, if desired.
Tips:
- Use fresh shredded coconut. Fresh shredded coconut has a much better flavor and texture than dried shredded coconut. If you can't find fresh shredded coconut, you can use unsweetened frozen shredded coconut, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the pie tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the pie until the filling is set. The filling should be set but still slightly jiggly in the center when the pie is done.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. The pie will need to cool completely before serving so that the filling has time to set.
Conclusion:
Coconut pie is a delicious and classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy coconut filling and flaky crust, it's sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a special dessert to make, give this recipe a try.
