Everybody couldn’t get away with this heavenly pie! I made this just yesterday and everyone fell instantly in love. It is a real treat for everyone who loves coconut, custard, and pie. This rich, satisfying decadent holiday dessert has a creamy egg custard filling that no one can say no to. This has been my family’s favorite for decades!
Growing up, I watched my mom made this. I will always have a vivid picture of me and my brother constantly fighting for the last piece! This pie is so good we can’t take our hands off it. My favorite is the flaky, buttery crust and my brother is obsessed with the lightly-sweetened custard filling. But we both love the toasted coconut flakes. Every bite is nostalgic. A reminder of my crazy but amazing childhood.
This Coconut Custard Pie hits the sweet spot and one slice will never be enough. This pie is certainly a crowd pleaser and will leave you salivating.
