Ingredients
Units
Scale
- Crust:
- 1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Domino® Golden Sugar
- 6 tablespoons cold salted butter, cubed
- Coconut Filling:
- 4 large egg yolks
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 2 (14 oz) cans full-fat coconut milk
- 1/2 cup, plus 1 tablespoon Domino® Golden Sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 1 cup cold heavy cream
- Zest of 1 lemon
- Toasted coconut, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease an 8 or 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom or use a standard pie plate.
- Crust: In a food processor, pulse the coconut into semi-fine crumbs. Add the flour, Domino® Golden Sugar, and butter. Pulse until the mix clumps together into pea-size balls. Gradually add 3 tablespoons of cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Press the dough into the prepared pie plate. Bake for 12-14 minutes until golden.
- Filling: In a large pot, whisk together the egg yolks and cornstarch until fully combined. Add ½ cup Domino® Golden Sugar, coconut milk, and salt. Over medium-high heat, bring the mixture to a boil, stirring continuously until thick and creamy, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat, then stir in vanilla, butter, and shredded coconut. Pour into the baked crust. Cover and chill for 3 hours or up to 4 days.
- Whipped Cream: Whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Combine lemon zest with 1 tablespoon Domino® Golden Sugar. Top the pie with the whipped cream, sprinkle with lemon sugar, and toasted coconut. Slice and serve!
