Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Bisquick (or homemade substitute: 1 cup flour, 1½ tsp baking powder, ½ tsp salt, 1 tbsp oil or melted butter)
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup flaked coconut
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp softened butter (for the pie pan)
Preparation
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Butter a 9-inch pie pan generously to ensure the crust doesn’t stick.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine Bisquick, sugar, eggs, milk, flaked coconut, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
4. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie pan.
5. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown. The magic happens as it bakes, creating distinct layers of crust, custard, and coconut topping.
6. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before serving. This allows the layers to fully set.
Tip: For a homemade Bisquick substitute, mix 1 cup flour, 1½ tsp baking powder, ½ tsp salt, and 1 tbsp oil or melted butter.
Enjoy this irresistible coconut custard as a delightful end to any meal!
