Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 1.5 cups Sweetened shredded coconut
• 1 cup Chopped pecans
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 7 large Egg whites
• 1 piece Unbaked 9-inch pie crust
• 0 optional Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sweetened shredded coconut, chopped pecans, and granulated sugar. Stir until evenly mixed.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, lightly beat the egg whites until foamy. Do not beat to stiff peaks; they should just be foamy.

Step 4

Add the foamy egg whites to the dry mixture and stir until everything is well combined and the mixture is moist.

Step 5

Place the unbaked 9-inch pie crust into a pie pan if not already in one. Pour the mixture into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 6

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and golden brown on top.

Step 7

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving.

Step 8

Serve warm with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
