Step 4: Assemble and Bake the Pie
- Fill the Crust: Pour the coconut custard filling into the pre-baked pie crust, spreading it evenly.
- Bake: Place the pie in the oven and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 40–45 minutes, or until the custard is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
- Cool: Allow the pie to cool at room temperature for about an hour, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to fully set.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Once chilled, your coconut custard pie is ready to serve! Slice it up and top with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of toasted coconut for an extra touch of indulgence.
Tips for Success:
- For Extra Flavor: Lightly toast the shredded coconut before adding it to the filling for a nuttier taste.
- Avoid Overbaking: The custard continues to set as it cools, so remove it from the oven when it’s just set in the center.
- Make Ahead: Coconut custard pie tastes even better the next day, making it a perfect dessert to prepare in advance.
Enjoy your homemade coconut custard pie—a classic dessert that’s sure to impress friends and family with its creamy texture and tropical flair!
