Fast and Easy Coconut Custard Pie

I know this recipe as Impossible Pie and it is my absolute favorite - no holiday would be complete without it. It truly does make it's own crust and this custard always comes out just right - never watery.

Tasted like coconut quiche instead of custard. I came back to the recipe to see if I had forgotten to write down some sort of sweetener, but there is none listed. I don't eat very sweet foods, but this could have benefitted from even just 1 teaspoon of sugar. Very eggy and buttery. I will be the only one who will eat this. Sorry to be negative.

Wow, what a hit! So good that my non-baking friend asked to borrow my pie plate and the recipe!
Lucky for her, it's as easy as it is tasty!

OMG Ladies, simply brown your crust. Get a store bought crust or your choice put a few beans at the bottom if you prefer for weights (toss when finished) as it may bubble a little and cover the edges with thin strips of foil. Just the edges, no it wont fit perfectly but it is necessary so the edges wont overcook because remember you still have to bake the pie so this browning process isn't extremely long, maybe 15min. or a bit longer but not too long, set your timer so you wont over do it to 10min. & gage it from there. Allow it to cool a few min. the foil needs to remain on the edges during the baking process as well or simply replace them if they fall off then bake your pie. 10min before the pie is ready check your crust if you need to remove the foil if it still isn't brown enough but I doubt you will have that issue, leave it on. This is the way my grandmother taught me to bake all pies to ensure you don't end up with a messy crust or burnt edges... ENJOY

This coconut custard pie really is fast and easy! Not to mention, delicious! I made the recipe exactly as written. I ate my piece warm with whipped cream. Took a piece over to my parents and they loved it as well. I'll definitely be making this again. Thanks for posting!

Wonderful! This was really yummy and so easy to make! One thing I want to comment on regarding the review about the crust being a doughy mess. When I was reading the recipe and got to the part about dusting the pie pan with flour, I very nearly interpreted that as using the 1/2 cup of flour in the ingredients list. But it's a separate dusting of flour, and then the 1/2 cup goes in the blender. I wonder if that's what went wrong! Another thing; the first time I was so eager to eat the pie (it smelled so good!) that I pulled it out when the custard was done. But the crust was still pretty soft. The next time I made it, I put it on the second lowest rack in the oven and let it cook for the full hour. That did the trick. The crust is still soft - you can't expect a regular pie crust - but you just can't beat the simplicity of it. Oh, and the second time I made it, I put in an 8 oz. can of tidbit pineapple (well drained) and reduced the coconut to 3/4 cup. MMMMM!! Thank you for a great recipe!

at this moment, my pie is cooking in the oven, however, i did have about a cup and a half of filling leftover that wouldn't fit into the pie plate... i stuck it in a mug and put it in the microwave for a minute and a half (my microwave is very hot) and it came out perfectly cooked and delicious!!! nice little treat while i'm waiting for the pie to cook!

I made this pie exactly the way it was written. The bottom crust did not cook, so it was a doughy mess. The custard was very thin and the top was too brown. All in all, not a very good pie. I think I will stick with the regular version.

I love coconut pie and when there is no crust it's even better. Less work and less fat I presume LOL I reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup and it was perfect. I love it. Thanks Ladypit. Made for Cookbook tag

I dont really care for custard but this was pretty good. The no crust is great for me because I make horrible pie crusts! I did use the skim milk and think that is what I will stick with. UPDATE: My mom loves this pie and I have made it several times for her. She now makes it for herself too since I printed the recipe for her.

We loved it, some other reviews say its also known as Impossible Pie. Well, the immpossible pies I have had were OVERLY sweet. If you like a little bit of sweet with a custard consistency, this is it!

I was really impressed with how this turned out - all I did was mix seven ingredients in the blender! My husband really wanted to know how I made the top crust and I honestly don't know the answer. Thank you for a great recipe for my afternoon sweet tooth!

This is the first "impossible pie" I've made and I must say, I love it! I am not a big fan of pie crusts, really, so I don' t make pie that often, so the fact that this makes its own crust is idea for me! I actually made a quarter recipe, cooking it in a small pyrex dish I have. I was thinking about making a full recipe in muffin tins to have a bunch of little individual-size pies, but I wasn't sure if it would work before I made the recipe- but now that I have, I think it would work and I will try that next time! (Maybe in cupcake liners). I didn't have sweetened coconut, so I used some extra sugar (I used 1/4 cup for a 1/4 recipe, which would be 1 cup for the whole recipe). I also made some substitutions- I used whole wheat pastry flour for the flour, unsweetened soymilk and sucanat for the sugar, which left me with a lovely golden-brown pie. This surprised me by puffing up a lot in the oven and then settled as it set. I wonder if this would work with an egg substitute (like Flax Vegan Egg Substitute #104832). Thanks Jen, this was yummy!

Excellent! I have tried lots of custard pie recipes as that is my DH's favorite dessert, and I must say this is the easiest and best tasting pie I have made yet. A definite KEEPER! Thanks!
