Made this last night for Christmas and it turned out really great! very simple, making the pie crust was harder. I used a different recipe for the crust (was out of vegetable oil!) so next time I’ll try using the recipe you list and hope it’ll be better.

Julia says
This was absolutely delicious! I was worried about not pre-cooking the crust but it worked out wonderfully! My only issue was with the coconut! I had to buy a different brand and this recipe required two of those cans(they are smaller), and one of my cans was very solidified and was difficult to mix up, leading to some small chunks in my pie! Not sure if I could’ve blended them away or what the issue was there, if only I could find the recommended brand! This pie was delicious and me and my dairy free sister will make it for years to come!
