Ingredients
- 14 ounces full-fat coconut milk (1 can)
- 1 cup whole milk
- ¼ cup heavy cream divided
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup cornstarch
- 2 large eggs beaten
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
- 1 9-inch refrigerated pie crust pre-baked and cooled
- 2 cups Whipped Cream optional, for garnish
- ½ cup Toasted Coconut optional, for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan set over medium-low heat, whisk the coconut milk, milk, heavy cream, sugar, cornstarch, eggs, and salt together. Bring the mixture to a bare simmer, stirring constantly, for 15-20 minutes, or until thickened.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
- Set a fine mesh strainer over a clean mixing bowl, then pour the custard through it. Use a rubber spatula to press out any clumps.
- Stir the flaked coconut into the warm custard in the bowl.
- Transfer the finished custard into the baked pie shell. Press a piece of plastic wrap directly to the surface of the pie and chill until firm, about 4 hours, up to 1 day.
- Top the pie with the whipped cream, then sprinkle toasted coconut over the whole pie.
Notes
- Storage: Store coconut cream pie loosely covered with aluminum foil or plastic wrap in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or tightly covered in 2 layers of plastic wrap and 1 layer of aluminum foil in the freezer for up to 3 months.
