Ingredients

• 200 grams Graham cracker crumbs
• 100 grams Unsalted butter, melted
• 400 grams Sweetened condensed milk
• 240 ml Coconut milk
• 100 grams Shredded coconut, unsweetened
• 3 Egg yolks
• 30 grams Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Fresh mango, diced
• 1 cup Fresh pineapple, diced
• 0.5 cup Fresh passion fruit pulp
• 1 tablespoon Sugar (optional, for fruit topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F).

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until evenly coated. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.

Step 3

Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.

Step 4

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk, coconut milk, shredded coconut, and egg yolks. Cook gently while stirring until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.

Step 5

In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Slowly add the slurry to the saucepan, stirring constantly, and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the filling is thick and creamy.

Step 6

Remove the filling from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 7

Pour the coconut filling into the prepared pie crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.

Step 8

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.

Step 9

While the pie is chilling, prepare the tropical fruit topping. In a bowl, mix the diced mango, diced pineapple, and passion fruit pulp. If desired, add sugar to taste for extra sweetness.

Step 10

Once the pie is set, top it with the prepared tropical fruit mixture.

Step 11

Slice, serve, and enjoy your Brazilian Coconut Pie with Tropical Fruit!
