Easy Coconut Pie
A super easy pie where coconut is the star. Sweet, buttery, and crispy. With only 5 minutes of prep!
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs , beaten
- 1 & 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter , melted
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar (see note)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- pinch of salt
- 1 9-inch pie crust , store bought or homemade
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl, mix all the filling ingredients until well combined; pour into the pie shell.
- Place pie on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour (cover crust with foil if it starts to brown too quickly, or use a crust protector.)
- Let set and cool completely before slicing.
Notes
The acid provides a nice counterpart to the sweetness, and the chemical reaction allows baked goods to be light and fluffy. If you don't have white wine vinegar, you can use regular vinegar or lemon juice in its place.
