FRENCH COCONUT PIE....

This is an old, easy, and fairly frugal recipe that's been tucked in my recipe tin for years and years.

I made two different pies and this one won 6 votes out of 8!

5 ingredients + one pie shell! Easy peasy!

***

Preheat oven to 400.

-unbaked 9 inch pie shell (homemade or storebought)

In preheated oven, bake shell after brushing with egg white for one minute to help keep the crust from becoming soggy.

(You don't have to use a separate egg white, just dab a little from one you will be using.)

In a bowl whisk lightly;

3 eggs .

Blend in 1 1/2 cups sugar

1 t vanilla

1 cup coconut

-and slowly whisk in

1/2 cup melted butter

Pour into pie shell.

Bake at 400 for 10 minutes;

375 for 15 minutes;

350 for 15 to 20 minutes.
