Ingredients You’ll Need
Let’s start with the ingredients you’ll need to make this coconut pie. For a complete list of ingredients and amounts, scroll to the end of the post to the recipe card.
- All Purpose Baking Mix: This is what forms the “crust” on the pie. It’s not like a traditional pie crust but the baking mix settles to the bottom of the pie and bakes to form a layer that acts like the crust.
- Milk: We use 2% or whole, whole is preferred.
- Eggs: The eggs will help bind the custard, and add a rich flavor.
- Butter: Melted, slated butter.
- Sweetened Coconut Flakes: The coconut element to this pie recipe, make sure it’s the sweetened variety.
- Vanilla Extract: Just a splash to bring out the flavor.
- Sugar: Of course, to sweeten the pie, you can use a sugar substitute as well.
How To Make
Have you ever made a pie in your blender? If you haven’t, get ready because this is the easiest pie recipe that you’ll ever make.
- STEP 1 – Add all of the ingredients (see the recipe card below) to a blender and blend for 30 seconds until the batter is smooth.
- STEP 2 – Pour the batter into a 9″ x 2″ pie dish and bake for 45 minutes. The center of the pie will still be slightly loose, but the pie will set upon cooling. Let the pie cool completely and then garnish with whipped cream and more coconut if desired.
Does Pie Need To Be Refrigerated?
Yes. This is a refrigerated pie, so after you’re done enjoying a slice or two, cover it with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator. This pie will keep for up to 4 days in the refrigerator, so don’t worry about any leftovers.
do i have to use a blender?
Nope, if you don’t have a blender, you can still make an Impossible Coconut Pie! If you happen to have a food processor that’s large enough to hold all of the liquid, you can use that, too.
You can also use a hand mixer or just a regular whisk and your muscles. You want to get the ingredients very well blended together so if you’re using a whisk make sure that you whisk rapidly and for at least 2 minutes. The batter should be thick and frothy.
can this pie be made ahead of time and frozen?
Yes. Let the pie cool down completely and then wrap and freeze. Freeze the whole pie or cut into slices and freeze for an individual serving.
Let the pie defrost in the refrigerator overnight (or for a few hours if wrapped individually) and enjoy.
How To Serve
A giant dollop of whipped cream, a few berries or a simple sprig of mint. Sprinkling some more coconut on top is good for both flavor and the look of the pie as well.
Other ways to serve this pie recipe is with a scoop of ice cream on the side. If you want to get super fancy, you can buy toasted coconut for a garnish, too!
