Marla’s Crustless Coconut Pie

Marla’s Crustless Coconut Pie – S

Marla’s Crustless Coconut Pie has been an amazing hit with THMs around the globe! Serve this for Resurrection Sunday, Mother’s Day, or any day dessert and even non-THMs will reach for another slice!

This is a Trim Healthy Mama Community submitted recipe from Marla Ayatskua who lives in Japan. Marla says: “This recipe was a wonderful accidental discovery. I wanted my grandmother’s coconut pie but did not have enough ingredients for a THM crust. So I converted just the pie filling from my grandmother’s recipe to THM and baked it without a crust. It turned out so delicious! Non-THM family raved about it. It’s quick to mix up and includes ingredients you probably already have on-hand. This is perfect to whip up the day before and take along to an event or just keep it all to yourself! Delicious and totally satisfying! And it tastes just as great a day or two later after it’s been in the fridge!”

Ingredients for the Pie:

– 3 eggs
– 3 to 4 Tablespoons THM Super Sweet Blend
– 1/4 cup THM Baking Blend
– 1 cup unsweetened almond or cashew milk (canned coconut milk works nicely, too)
– 1/3 cup melted extra virgin coconut (or 1/2 cup butter)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
– 1.5 cups unsweetened coconut flakes (or unsweetened shredded coconut)
– 1 Tablespoon extra virgin coconut oil (or butter) to grease the pie pan

Ingredients for Whipped Cream Topping:

– 1/2 cup heavy cream
– 2 to 3 teaspoons THM Gentle Sweet
– 1 dash vanilla extract

Instructions for the Pie:

1. Beat eggs and sweetener together for 2 to 3 minutes. Taste to be sure it is sweet enough, I am conservative with sweetener.

2. Mix the rest of the ingredients together well, and pour into a greased pie plate.

3. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes or until the middle sets up.

4. Remove from the oven and allow time to cool. Cut and serve at room temperature or after a few hours in the fridge. Top with whipped cream.

Instructions for the Whipped Cream Topping:

1. Whip together the heavy cream, THM Gentle Sweet, and vanilla extract until peaks form and add a dollop to the top of your pie!
