    Coconut: Coconut Butter Cream Pie

    Source of Recipe

    New Recipes from Quilt Country

    List of Ingredients

    1 pie crust, 9", lightly baked
    2 eggs
    1/4 cup sugar
    1 tablespoon flour
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1 tablespoon butter, melted
    1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
    1 cup light corn syrup
    1 cup milk
    1 1/3 cups flaked coconut
    ground cinnamon

    Recipe

    Preheat oven to 350ºF. Roll out pastry & line a 9" pie pan. Prick the pastry all over with a fork and bake for 6-8 minutes, check to make sure bubbles aren't forming, if they are, lightly stab them with a fork to deflate. Remove from oven & cool on a wire rack.

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until they are broken up. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, flour, and salt and gradually add to the eggs. Add the butter, vanilla & corn syrup and combine; do not overmix. With a mixing spoon, stir in the milk and coconut. The mixture should not be too bubbly.

    Pour the coconut mixture into the pre-baked pie shell and sift cinnamon on the top. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the pie is still a bit shaky, puffy in the middle, but not completely firm. Remove from the oven & put on a wire rack to cool completely before serving. The filling for this pie can be made 2-3 days in advance and refrigerated. Just stir to recombine ingredients & pour in pie shell. That makes it nice so the crust doesn't get soggy.
