The Best Coconut Custard Pie

No act of love, however small, is ever wasted.
Easy cooking for busy families


Preheat oven to 350

4 large eggs
1 (3.5oz) bag of flaked sweetened coconut divided between the pies
1 (12 oz) can of evaporated milk
1 cup sugar (you can add as much as 1 & 1/2 cups sugar if you like it sweeter.
2 tsp. cornstarch
1/2 cup butter melted, do not substitute (1 stick of butter equals 1/2 cup)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. lemon extract
2 unbaked 8 inch pie shells - do NOT use deep dish OR a 9" pie shell, this is a very old recipe and it will not make enough custard for either one.
Blend the eggs, sugar and cornstarch in a medium bowl. Add the melted butter, both extract flavorings and evaporated milk. Mix these very well. Divide batter between the 2 pie shells and sprinkle the 3.5 oz. bag of coconut over both pies. Bake 35 to 45 minutes until the top is a light golden brown. Chill, serve and enjoy! This recipe does not support deep dish crusts. It will not bake correctly as 1 pie.
