For an extra layer of flavor, toast the coconut flakes lightly before adding them to the filling. If the pie crust edges are browning too quickly, cover them with foil or a pie shield during the last 15 minutes of baking. Ensure the butter is softened, but not melted, for the best texture. A pinch of salt can enhance the sweetness of the pie. Serve chilled or at room temperature for the best experience.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
StepBake the pie crust in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). (12 minutes)
03
StepIn a large bowl, combine the granulated sugar and all-purpose flour. Stir in the lightly beaten eggs until well combined. (3 minutes)
04
StepAdd the sweetened flaked coconut, evaporated milk, softened butter, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated. (5 minutes)
05
StepPour the coconut filling into the prepared, partially baked pie crust, ensuring it's evenly distributed. (2 minutes)
06
StepBake in the preheated oven until the filling is set, approximately 35 to 40 minutes. The pie should be slightly golden on top and not jiggly in the center. (40 minutes)
07
StepRemove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to fully set and the flavors to meld. (60 minutes)

Jun 23, 2025My crust didn't brown enough in the initial bake. Next time, I'll bake it a little longer before adding the filling.
