“Impossible” Coconut Pie
I was curious and fully attracted by this recipe name ‘Impossible’ Coconut Pie by Valli Little at Taste.Com.Au. Without much hesitation I quickly took out all the required ingredients from my fridge and pantry. This recipe is very easy to follow. You don’t need to beat up the butter or eggs, just dump all the ingredients into a food processor and blend them together within 30 seconds. So simple right? But you need to bake the pie for 60 minutes or a little longer to make sure it is fully cooked because so much liquid have been used. I’ve used three quarters of the recipe to fit my 22cm (9 inch) pie tray and also reduced lemon juice and sugar to suit my taste buds.
Verdict: Totally agree with Valli ~ “Delicious and yet so easy. It’s impossible to go wrong with this tropical sweet pie dessert”. This coconut pie is very fragrant even when it is baking in the oven. The combination of coconut milk, lemon and orange juices is so perfect, that’ll definitely make you reach for another slice. Another keeper recipe!
“Impossible” Coconut Pie
3 Eggs
130g Sugar
75g Butter, softened
60g Desiccated coconut
11/2 tbsp Lemon zest
1 1/2 tbsp Orange zest

125m Orange juice
200ml Thick coconut milk
70g Plain flour, sifted
Method:
- Preheat oven to 170C.

- Place pie tray at the lower rack of the oven and bake for 60 – 80 minutes. Loosely cover with aluminium foil when you find the pie turning brown during half way of baking. Set aside to cool, then refrigerate for 1 hour to chill.
- Slice and serve with a little
whipped cream and passionfruit.blueberry jam and sprinkle some toasted desiccated coconut over it.
Hope you have a wonderful week!
Just tried this pie, and it's delicious! I substituded orange juice with grapefruit and it turned out very tingy but I like the combination very much. So soft and moist ๐
Hi Felena, Thank you very much for trying my recipe. What a great idea using grapefruit in this recipe. I definitely want to try it too. :))
It certainly looks impossible to resist! I am sure it must be delicious!

Aussie!Aussie! Aussie!Oui! Oui! Oui! I was about to leave a message here last night b4 a virus message popped out & I couldnt continue anymore! There was something wrong with my blog yesterday. This Valli Little does ring a bell to me, anyway, came here for your Impossible Coconut Pie!
hahaa… why are you so excited? Yes the virus very strong and took me hours to clean them out of my blog ๐ So sad I've lost some readers ๐
Me too not a fan of coconut but your pie look so gorgeous and telling me to give it a chance. I still have dessicated coconut in the fridge.
must be full of coconut aroma, and the recipe is so so simple, hopefully i can try this out soon.
Although I'm not much of a 'coconut' fan but looking at your pics and after reading the description, I'm having second thoughts!
Thanks Cheah. I seldom use 'coconut' in my bakes but this is exceptional ๐

Looks so easy and delicious! I love recipes I can blitz in the blender rather than use the mixer!
Mich, I'm also looking for easy recipe nowadays as I don't want to spend too much time in the kitchen because of the hot weather.
This looks like a really good pie!

this really look so tempting! i guess its hard not to be tempted to get a bite while letting it chill in the fridge. i don't hv a food processor, do you think mixing well will turn out find?
I think you can use the hand held electric mixer. Just mix them for a while to make sure the sugar dissolved.
thanks! will bookmark this.. =)
Though me not big fan of coconut but this loooks nice.
Hheehe impossible to resist! Looks delicious ๐
