COCONUT CUSTARD PIE
There are two types of Southerners in the world: coconut "cream" pie people and coconut "custard" pie people-while we love both people equally, this Coconut Custard Pie recipe might just make a few converts. Rather than the airy texture of coconut cream pie, our Coconut Custard Pie is smooth and rich with a chilled custard base filled with sweetened shreds of coconut. The coconut shreds in the pie both enhance the flavor and give a slight crunch and chew to an otherwise smooth pie. To complement the hefty richness of custard, we top the pie with freshly whipped cream and toasted coconut chips for both pillowy and crunchy contrast.To make the coconut custard, we use a can of coconut cream rather than coconut milk because it's creamier and thicker than the milk, making the custard all the more irresistible. We also use coconut extract to maximize the coconut taste. While coconut cream pies have a place in this world, we're confident this Coconut Custard Pie should have a place on your kitchen table.

Steps:
- Roll pie dough to a 1/8-inch thick circle and place inside a greased 9-inch metal tart pan or pie pan. Cut excess dough, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Fold overhang under itself, creating a thicker ring of crust around the pie's edge. Crimp edge. Take a sheet of aluminum foil and grease it liberally with butter. Place the buttered surface inside the pie shell, allowing the pie dough to come in direct contact with the aluminum foil. Freeze crust for 1 hour or overnight. Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake crust with aluminum foil for 30 minutes. Remove aluminum foil and use a spoon to press down any areas that have puffed up. Bake uncovered until the crust is completely cooked and lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and set aside to cool.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together sugar, cornstarch, flour, and salt. Gradually add the milk, whisking constantly, until dry ingredients are fully dissolved. Add egg yolks and coconut cream and whisk to combine. Place over medium-high heat and whisk constantly until mixture thickens and bubbles appear on the surface. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue whisking for an additional minute. Remove from heat and stir in coconut extract and sweetened shredded coconut. Use a fine wire-mesh strainer to strain the mixture into the prepared pie shell, spreading the mixture evenly. Chill at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Garnish pie with freshly whipped cream and toasted unsweetened coconut chips if desired.

COCONUT CUSTARD PIE
This delicious vegan pie was another wildly popular dessert at my market bakery. The crumbly oat crust goes great with the cool, creamy filling. And, if awesome taste is not enough to tempt you, it's quick and easy to prepare.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a food processor, blend the tofu, silken tofu, canola oil, agave nectar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, lemon extract, and salt, scraping down the bowl often, until very smooth. This will take some time. When the mixture is completely smooth, add the coconut and blend just until combined. Spoon into the unbaked piecrust and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the tofu is set. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature before refrigerating. The pie gets firmer as it cools in the refrigerator.
BUTTER COCONUT PIE
Kind of like a cross between a sugar cream pie and a coconut cream pie. Rich, buttery, coconut pie.... so good. I am not a good baker... seriously. But in all the years I've made this, I've never screwed it up once! It's that easy. Once people have had this, I'm requested to bring it to gatherings from then on.

COCONUT PIE BARS
This easy recipe turns a classic Southern coconut pie recipe into wonderfully chewy bar cookies with a shortbread crust. The chocolate chips are optional, but they add a bittersweet flavor that tones down the sugary coconut, especially if you use chocolate with a high cacao percentage (72 percent to 80 percent). Or, for something crunchier, use chopped pecans instead of chocolate.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch square pan and line with parchment, leaving some overhanging.
- In a food processor, pulse together flour, sugar and salt. Pulse in butter until crumbs form and the dough starts to come together. Press mixture into the prepared pan in an even layer. Bake until firm on top and lightly golden at the edges, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a rack. You can bake the crust up to 6 hours ahead, or use it while it's still hot.
- While the crust bakes, using the same food processor (no need to wash it out first), pulse together eggs, sugar, butter, coconut milk, vinegar or lemon juice, lemon zest (if using), vanilla and salt until well combined. Pulse in the coconut. Use a spatula to fold in the chocolate chips, if using.
- When the crust is baked, pour in the filling (crust can still be hot). Lower oven temperature to 325 degrees and bake until the filling is set when you jiggle it and the top is browned, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, then chill for at least 2 hours. Cut into bars and serve.
COCONUT CUSTARD PIE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- To prepare the pie shell, on a clean, lightly floured work surface, roll out half a ball of dough with a rolling pin until it forms a 10-inch circle. Fold the circle in half, place it in a 9-inch pie plate so that the edges of the circle drop over the rim, and unfold the dough to completely cover the pie plate. Using your thumb and index finger, crimp the edges of the pie shell. Brush the edges of the pie shell with heavy cream to create a perfect, golden brown finish. Set the pie shell to the side while you make the filling.
- Spread the shredded coconut onto a baking sheet. Toast in a 350°F oven for 2 minutes. Watch carefully as the coconut can brown easily. Toss with a spatula and toast for 1 more minute or until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool.
- To prepare the filling, using an electric mixer on medium speed, mix together the eggs, sugar, and salt. Add the flour, milk, melted butter, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla and mix until thoroughly incorporated. Stir the toasted coconut into the filling. Pour the filling into the pie shell.
- To bake, place the pie plate on a baking sheet and bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until the filling is firm in the middle. Transfer the pie plate to a wire cooling rack and allow the pie to cool and set for 1 hour before serving.
- Coconut Custard Pie should be served cold. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
