Ingredients

Scale

For the Pie:

  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  2. Prepare the filling: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together sugar and flour. Add eggs, melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until smooth. Stir in shredded coconut.
  3. Fill the pie crust: Pour the mixture into the unbaked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
