Ingredients

Scale
  • 9" frozen deep dish pie crust
  • 6 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1¼ cups cream of coconut
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3 large eggs (lightly beaten)
  • 1/2 tsp coconut extract
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut (divided)
  • 1½ cups chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and place the frozen pie crust on a baking sheet.
  2. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until browned, then remove from heat and whisk in cream of coconut, brown sugar, flour, and salt. Let it cool for about 5-10 minutes.
  3. Whisk in the lightly beaten eggs and coconut extract. Stir in chopped pecans and half of the shredded coconut before pouring into the prepared crust.
  4. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until set; cover with foil if browning too quickly. Allow to cool completely before refrigerating for about two hours.
  5. Toast the remaining shredded coconut in a skillet until golden brown and serve slices topped with fresh whipped cream and toasted coconut.
