This is an amazing version of one of my favorites. I'm not a huge fan of pies, except for cream pies with custard creams. Coconut is also one of my favorite flavors all time!
Ingredients
1 9-inch pie crust
1 cup sweetened, shredded coconut
1/3 cup starch
0.5 cup sugar
1 15 oz can coconut milk
about 1.5 cup heavy cream to bring liquids to 3 cups total
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
0.25 tsp salt
Preparation
Mix the starch with the sugar and salt. Whisk in the eggs.
Add in the cream and coconut cream little by little.
Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Simmer until thickened. Mix in most of the coconut flakes and the vanilla.
Pour into pre-baked pie crust, cover and plastic foil and chill completely in the fridge.
Top with whipped cream and toasted coconut flakes if desired.
