Easy Coconut Cake (pie?)

I was in the mood for something sweet but I didn't know what to make.  Luckily I had seen this easy recipe a few days ago for crustless coconut pie.  I think it had impossibly easy in the title.

This isn't one of my usual "healthy" recipes but sometimes ya gotta splurge!

Crustless Easy Coconut Cake/Pie

INGREDIENTS
1 stick unsalted butter, melted

1 3/4 cups sugar
4 large eggs
1/2 cup self-rising flour 

(I just used regular flour because that's 
what I had on hand)
2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
2 cups milk


DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 350° and butter two 9-inch glass pie plates (I used square because that's what I had on hand).  I used non-stick spray instead of butter.
2. In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter with the sugar. Add the eggs and beat until smooth. Stir in the flour, coconut and milk. Divide the mixture between the pie plates and bake in the lower third of the oven for about 1 hour, until the pies are firm to the touch and golden. Transfer the pies to a rack and cool completely before serving.


This pie is delicious all by itself.  If you want to make it sinfully delicious drizzle with homemade glaze.

  10. That looks good. I just picked up some coconut flour, so I'll try that since the recipe doesn't call for much flour at all. You didn't add any baking powder or baking soda to your ap flour?
