Caramel Coconut Macadamia Nut Pie
Description
The Caramel Coconut Macadamia Nut Pie features a custard-like filling with corn syrup and eggs providing a firm, glossy texture. Melted butter and vanilla add richness and depth to the sweet base. Chopped macadamia nuts and shredded coconut mixed into the filling bring crunch and tropical flavor throughout.
Baked in a 9-inch pie crust until the center sets, the pie develops a slightly chewy, caramelized top and a tender interior. Once cooled, it is garnished with whipped cream, coconut flakes, and drizzled caramel sauce, enhancing the layered flavors and textures with creaminess and extra sweetness.
This dessert suits occasions where a rich, nutty pie is desired and can be served chilled or at room temperature. Its combination of nuts and coconut offers a distinctive tropical profile alongside traditional caramel notes.
It is noted that the recipe fits a deep dish pie crust; if using a regular pie crust, any excess filling should be discarded to avoid overflow during baking.
Ingredients
- 1 cup corn syrup
- 4 large egg
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup macadamia nuts chopped
- ¾ cup coconut plus more for topping, flaked
- ¼ cup caramel sauce
- whipping cream
- 1 (9-inch) pie crust see note, unbaked
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl mix together corn syrup, eggs, butter, vanilla, macadamia nuts and coconut. Pour mixture into the pie crust.

Notes
- This filling quantity is designed for a 9-inch deep dish pie crust; if using a standard crust, only fill to the crust's edge and discard extra filling.
