Mama's Buttermilk Coconut Pie image

My mama showed me how to make this pie about 40 years ago, just as her mama showed her how to make it. I was 6 when Mawmaw passed away, but I can still remember her cooking in the kitchen in her beautiful cotton dresses dusted with flour. I am honored to teach my daughter how to make this dessert, too. -Lisa Allen, Joppa, Alabama

MOM'S COCONUT PIE



Mom's Coconut Pie image

This is my Mom's recipe that she passed on to me. Those recipes are the best that have been handed down. We made this together. You have to use the exact name brand ingredients or it will be a dud. It is a great pie! Since it makes 2,you can freeze one for later. So enjoy!

Categories     Pies

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 c granulated sugar
1/2 c melted country crock butter
1 c whole milk
6 large eggs
1 Tbsp vanilla flavoring
14 oz baker's angel flake sweetened coconut
2 pet-ritz regular pie shells

Steps:

  • 1. In a large mixing bowl, put 2 cups of sugar and add your 1/2 cup of melted Country Crock butter and stir with a large spoon.
  • 2. Now add your 1 cup of whole milk to this mixture and stir with your spoon.
  • 3. Add an egg one at a time to your mixture, stirring as you go until you have added all six eggs.
  • 4. Now add 1 tablespoon of vanilla flavoring to your mixture and stir well.
  • 5. Begin to add your Baker's Angel Flake sweetened coconut a little at a time stirring as you go until you have it completely mixed in your bowl.
  • 6. Divide mixture between your two Pet-Ritz pie shells. You may have a little left over. I put my pies on baking sheets lined with Reynolds wrap for spillage. Less mess to clean up.
  • 7. Bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Some ovens vary so keep a careful watch. They will not jiggle easily if they are done. Enjoy! Some of my friends love this with a scoop of French vanilla ice cream on top. And some like it plain.
