Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place your frozen deep dish pie crust on a baking sheet.
- Melt 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. Let it cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1¼ cups of cream of coconut, ½ cup of light brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour, and ½ teaspoon of salt until smooth.
- Gradually whisk in 3 lightly beaten large eggs and ½ teaspoon of coconut extract until fully incorporated.
- Fold in 1½ cups of chopped pecans and half of 1 cup of sweetened shredded coconut into the filling mixture.
- Pour the filling mixture into the prepared pie crust and smooth the top.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes until set in the center and slightly dull on top. Cover with foil if it browns too quickly.
- Let the pie cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Toast the remaining shredded coconut in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes until golden brown.
- Slice the chilled pie and top each piece with toasted coconut and whipped cream before serving.
