Old Fashioned Coconut Cream Pie

Wednesday, March 8, 2023
Old Fashioned Coconut Cream Pie is a creamy delicious homemade custard, with whipped heavy cream on top loaded with sweetened flaked coconut, it's one of my mom's oldest recipes, and would make it around Easter for dessert.

When it comes to fresh, all-made-from-scratch recipes for coconut cream pie, this is the best I have ever had when it comes to coconut cream custard, no matter how many other recipes I've tried over the years.

The custard is rich with egg yolks, and coconut milk, with just the amount of sweetness, and with mom's old-fashioned pie crust, it's worth every minute this takes.

Of course, if you're not into baking we have some tips below to make a shortened version using all store-bought ingredients, but truly if you love this creamy dream pie, you really will never go back to the quick instant pudding style again ever!

This pie is always on our dessert table, especially around Easter and Thanksgiving, and one of the most asked-for pies for me to make.

The crust is so flaky, the filling is full of coconut, and the creamy topping is all a match made in heaven in every bite.
