Give me pie over cake any day. I’m a pie person. Cake is “okay” but doesn’t really interest me unless it’s a dense, moist, real chocolate cake. The kind that sticks to your teeth like you ate a mouthful of… chocolate cake.
Feeling frustrated and moody lately with the current state of chaos in the world, I decided a pie was in order. I have plenty of fresh eggs from my hens on hand, and this pie is perfect because it takes four whole eggs.
You can find recipes for this pie all over the internet. This one I came up with by altering a few that I’d found.
If it’s cold outside, eat a slice of this coconut pie while it’s still warm… If it’s a hot day eat a slice cold, straight from the fridge. It tastes great either way! ~A

- 1 Cup Shredded Sweetened Coconut
- 1/2 Tsp Baking Powder
- 3/4 Cup Sugar
- 1/2 Cup Flour
- 1/4 Tsp Sea Salt
- 1 Tsp Vanilla

Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Mix ingredients thoroughly with a hand-held mixer or immersion blender until well blended.
- Pour mixture into a well-buttered Pie dish.
