Old fashioned coconut cream pie

Coconut Cream Pie is more than just a dessert; it’s a piece of culinary heritage that brings the flavors and memories of the past into the present. Serve this at your next gathering or as a special treat for yourself, and relish the creamy texture and rich coconut flavor that make this pie truly the best you’ve ever had.


Ingredients:


  • 100g sweetened flaked coconut
  • 750ml thickened cream
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 170g white sugar
  • 65g plain flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (23cm) pie shell, baked
  • 250ml whipped cream

Directions:


  1. Preheat your oven to 175°C.
  2. Spread the coconut flakes on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven, stirring occasionally, until golden brown—approximately 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  3. In a medium saucepan, mix the thickened cream, beaten eggs, sugar, flour, and salt until well combined.
  4. Place the saucepan over low heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly to prevent sticking or burning.
  5. Once the mixture has thickened and reached a boil, remove from heat. Stir in ¾ of the toasted coconut and the vanilla extract, mixing well.
  6. Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie shell. Smooth the surface with a spatula.
  7. Refrigerate the pie for about 4 hours, or until set.
  8. When ready to serve, top with whipped cream and sprinkle with the reserved toasted coconut.

Enjoy! 😊

The recipe was changed since original recipe . Half n half is half cream and half full cream milk. ( FULL CREAM MILK NOT SKIM)

It's been changed to 3 cups of cream only. NOTE it needs to be half milk and half cream.

Also this is an American recipe and their metric cup is 240mls not 250mls. So 720mls is needed.

This recipe needs to be exact or won't turn out.

Coconut cream pie is light and fluffy , using all cream it will be heavy.

If babybird made this she would know it and needs to let people know these things. Otherwise, making this recipe will be a waste of time and ingredients.

I'm not being a bully, just stating the facts

I've made this exact recipe, and if done correctly, it is a great recipe

l can't see what all the darn fuss is about and why would it be spoilt? .Just use ordinary cream instead of thickened .
Poor BB every recipes she puts forward get picks on.
The original recipe needs half n half , that much cream won't work in this recipe.
It won't turn out light as it should be.
If I followed her recipe I would be pretty upset it not turning out.

When someone ask bb a question she replies rudely which is not needed.

She will start of her recipe ' this is my grandmothers Pearl's recipe then cuts out the rest. People will think must be good if she is posting her grandmothers recipe when it's not her grandmothers but the original posters recipe.

With everyone that post recipes bb is the only ones I have problem with and that's because of how she answers people who have questions.

Everyone else's recipes especially Penny's muffins I love and will share with my daughters.

l always used to always change ingredient if l thought they would be better.
l would have thought cornflour instead of flour would have been better for this recipe like when making lemon meringue pie but thats me.
No problems with BB myself

Haven't u read the other posts on a yank politician wanting to change the wording from mother to inseminated person? have a look back! so being a dad I guess that makes me an inseminater 🙄 :cautious:. ( and I'm a chef).
No I probably read the headline and scrolled past I only read stuff that interests me, and I’ve never had kids.☹️
