Ingredients

• 1.5 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup light brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 3 large eggs
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon white vinegar
• 1 9-inch unbaked pie crust

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and all-purpose flour. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.

Step 3

Add the melted butter, eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and vinegar to the sugar mixture. Whisk until smooth and fully combined.

Step 4

Stir in the shredded coconut until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

Step 5

Place the unbaked 9-inch pie crust in a pie dish and pour the coconut filling into the crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 6

Transfer the pie to the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

Step 7

Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Step 8

Serve the pie at room temperature or chilled. Optionally, top with a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
