Description
A rich, creamy American pie with coconut-infused custard in a crumbly crust, topped with airy whipped cream. Chilled for a refreshing tropical finish.
Ingredients
1 pre-baked 9-inch pie crust
2 cups (480ml) whole milk
1 cup (240ml) coconut milk (17% fat minimum)
3 large egg yolks
2/3 cup (135g) granulated sugar
1/2 cup (60g) cornstarch
2 cups lightly whipped cream
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) if baking crust.
In a bowl, whisk together milk, coconut milk, egg yolks, sugar, and cornstarch until smooth.
In a saucepan, bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened (about 5 minutes). Cool slightly.
Let the thickened custard rest for 5 minutes, then stir in grated fresh coconut (1/2 cup) to infuse flavor.
Pour into the cooled pie crust and chill for 4-6 hours.
Before serving, spread whipped cream on top and garnish with additional grated coconut.
Notes
Use freshly grated coconut for optimal infusion.
Chill the pie for at least 4 hours to set properly.
For a non-dairy crust, use a vegan shortcrust alternative.
