This recipe belongs to a family of food called impossible pies. They self-form a type of crust while they bake. This recipe has the added advantage of forming a tasty crispy topping as well. I love custard pies, and this one is so easy, that I make it frequently. The photo was taken right as it came from the oven. It is a bit like a souffle and will not fall per se, but will settle a bit from its initial glory. (Taste of Home 1998)
Coconut Pie
2 c. milk1 c. sugar
4 eggs
1/2 c. Flour
6 Tbsp. butter or margarine (I prefer the margarine, the butter tends to leave a greasy trace)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. coconut
In a blender, combine all ingredients except coconut. Cover and blend for 10 seconds; scrape the sides and blend 10 for another 10 seconds. Add coconut, blend for 2 seconds. Pour into a greased 10 inch pie plate. Bake at 350 for 50-55 min. or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Serve warm.
Notes: This recipe fills my pie plate to the very tippy top, but if I can slide it in the oven without spilling, it will not over-flow during baking. Also, I like to serve this completely cooled.
