Grandma’s Impossible Coconut Pie
Grandma is the kind of person that always comes through when families are faced with hard times.
Whether it’s a funeral, an illness, or another sad or trying event, Grandma believes that a meal can lift the spirits.
Especially dessert.
And even more when that dessert is Grandma’s Impossible Coconut Pie.
Because she delivers on her promise to always come through, even when time is short, she has this go-to dish that she always sends.
This pie is so easy and quick to make and it tastes great!
In fact, no matter where this pie has been taken, the plate ALWAYS comes back empty!
Tips & Information
This pie goes into the oven as a liquid, so to avoid spills from the counter to the oven, I recommend a 10″ or deeper pie plate.
Impossible pie makes its own crust, so you don’t need to roll a crust or even get a pre-made crust.
It is best to use fresh coconut. The taste will be better with fresh ingredients.
Don’t tell anyone how easy it is to make.

I never comment on this type of stuff, but I just tried this recipe and thought that it was way too much sugar. I didn’t use all this called for and it is way too sweet. I looked around at other recipes like this and I believe the sugar amount should only be 1/2 cup not 2 cups. Upset that I didn’t double check before I made this. I wasted ingredients. 😢

Hi, Sue. I'm sorry this recipe wasn't right for you. I went back and checked my mom's recipe and it does call for 2 cups of sugar. Everyone's taste buds are different, aren't they? I appreciate your comment - I like honest feedback, for sure.

Can Stevia be used for the sugar? I am a Type One Diabetic. Thanks!

I don't know, sorry. I've never tried it. This is a recipe from my mom and we've always just made it as it is.
