LEMON COCONUT BUTTERMILK PIE

Steps:

• While the sugar crust is being refrigerated, test each of the three eyes at the stem end of the coconut to see which is the softest. Then, use an ice pick or a screwdriver and a hammer to pierce two of the eyes. Strain water through a fine sieve into a bowl; reserve for another use or discard.
• Place coconut on a rimmed baking sheet; bake for 30 minutes, or until coconut shell begins to crack. Set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Wrap coconut in a clean kitchen towel; holding coconut with one hand, hit it with a hammer in the same place several times to crack the outer shell and split the coconut into several large pieces.
• Separate coconut flesh from shell, and use a vegetable peeler to remove the dark outer skin. Using the large holes of a box grater, grate the coconut, creating long shaved pieces about 1/4 inch wide. You will need 1 1/4 cups; chill remaining coconut in an airtight container for another use.
• Remove crust from refrigerator. Cover with parchment, and fill with pie weights or beans. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool. Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees.
• Prepare the custard: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating until pale yellow and creamy. Add buttermilk, vanilla, and lemon juice, beating until well combined. Mix in lemon zest and 1 cup shredded coconut.
• Pour mixture into pie crust. Sprinkle with remaining coconut, and bake for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees, and continue baking until pie is golden brown and custard is set, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

COCONUT LEMON PIE

Steps:

• In mixing bowl, beat eggs.
• Melt the butter and add it to the eggs along with the sugar. Mix well.
• Add lemon juice and coconut to this mixture.
• Pour into unbaked pie crust and bake at 400 degrees for 35-45 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
• Pie tends to get too dark before it's done so I usually cover the edges with foil when it starts to get too brown.
• Let cool and serve.

COCONUT AND LEMON CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Combine flour, coconut oil, 2 tablespoons sugar, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix until mixture forms large crumbles. Pour in ice water in a steady stream and continue to mix until dough comes together, about 30 seconds.
• Transfer dough to a large sheet of plastic wrap. Form into a disc and wrap tightly. Chill for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Press 3/4 of the dough into the bottom of a broiler-safe pie plate.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let crust cool completely.
• Combine 2 cups sugar, coconut cream, eggs, egg yolks, lemon zest and juice, butter, and salt in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until curd thickens and coats the back of a wooden spoon, 10 to 12 minutes. Pour into a bowl and refrigerate until set, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Beat egg whites, 1/2 cup sugar, salt, and cream of tartar in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff, glossy peaks form, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Pour chilled curd into the cooled crust. Dollop big spoonfuls of meringue all over the curd.
• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Broil in the preheated oven until meringue is lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Chill pie until set, 3 to 24 hours.
