Custards are an important type of ingredients that you’ll often find in certain variants, such as crème brûlée, pumpkin pie, and cheesecake. Eggs are the star of the dish, and they help the custard set correctly, as the proteins cook. I love how this recipe has key ingredients from both islands, so it reminds us of this delicious cuisine even more. I also like using vanilla extract in this recipe. The flavors take to the next level. I love how this recipe has key ingredients from both islands, so it reminds us of this delicious cuisine even more.

This recipe becomes a staple in our family. My mom is a coconut lover, so she’s fond of making this pie, I can’t blame her though because it’s delicious. We serve this during gatherings and when a family relative is visiting, and it’s something that we are proud because people who tried this pie will always ask my mom about the recipe. I hope you’ll try this Coconut Custard Pie recipe and enjoy this with your family and friends.
