Ingredients
- 1 unbaked pie crust (9-inch)
- 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 1/4 cup toasted coconut (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, coconut milk, eggs, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Mix until smooth and well-blended.
- Pour the mixture into the unbaked pie crust and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle the shredded coconut over the top of the pie filling.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. The filling should be set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
- Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, sprinkle the toasted coconut on top for added flavor and texture.
- Serve with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
Helpful Tips and Variations
- For a nuttier flavor, you can use coconut sugar instead of brown sugar.
- If you don’t have coconut milk, almond milk makes a great substitute.
- Enhance the tropical vibe by adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the filling.
- To save time, use a store-bought pie crust.
Storage Instructions
Store any leftover pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For longer storage, wrap the pie tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
