Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter
• 1 cups white granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups whole milk
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cups shredded sweetened coconut
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish generously with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, crack and whisk the eggs until well blended. Melt the butter and allow it to cool slightly before adding it to the eggs.

Step 3

Add the granulated sugar to the bowl and whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Sift in the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Add the salt and whisk gently to incorporate, creating a smooth batter.

Step 5

Slowly pour in the milk while whisking to ensure a lump-free consistency. Stir in the vanilla extract to enhance the flavor.

Step 6

Gently fold in the shredded coconut, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish. The mixture will be thin, but it will bake up beautifully.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the pie dish to the preheated oven. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature. During this time, the pie will naturally separate into a crust, custard, and coconut topping.

Step 10

Slice and serve at room temperature or chilled. Enjoy the magic of Impossible Pie!
