A favorite coconut pie, shared on our forum.

Ingredients:

  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
  • 4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/3 cups grated coconut (3 ounce can)
  • pinch salt
  • 1 unbaked pie pastry, 9-inch

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350°. Combine eggs, sugar, butter, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt; mix well. Stir in coconut; pour into pie shell and bake for 30 minutes. Shield the crust edge with a pie shield ring or fashion one with aluminum foil and place over edge. Bake for 10 to 20 minutes longer, until set and no longer jiggly.
As the pie bakes, a golden topping forms on the surface.
Chill thoroughly before serving. The pie will be gooey if served at room temperature. Serves 6.
