Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 unbaked 9-inch deep-dish pie crust
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 ½ cups sweetened shredded coconut

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, whisk sugar and eggs until smooth, then whisk in melted butter, vanilla, vinegar, and salt. Stir in shredded coconut.
  2. Pour filling into the unbaked pie crust and spread the coconut evenly.
  3. Bake on the lower rack 45 to 50 minutes, covering the crust edges with foil if they brown too fast. The pie is done when the top is deep golden and the center jiggles just slightly.
  4. Cool completely on a wire rack, at least 2 hours, then slice and serve.

Notes

Cool the pie completely before slicing, it needs that time to set. It’s even better the next day, kept covered in the fridge.
