Wow! I ate this pie the day after, and couldn't believe how CREAMY and smooth it was! I happened to have all the ingredients on hand and gave it a try as I love custard pie, and coconut and lime. I did make a graham crust, and loved the ease of the blender. I blended each egg one at a time. The coconut kind of rises to the top, with a creamy bottom underneath. Definitely use the bottom of the oven as it gets a little brown, and watch if you need to shield the edges. It has great flavor, and I'm sure i'll make it again!

I made this for our 4th of July Celebration. It was easy and turned out great. Instead of a flour pie shell, I used a extra large graham craker crust (store bought). This made it even easier. I will absolutely make this again.
