That looked delicious. Ill have to make a pie.

[@MrsM222]

Pet Ritz Pie Crust!! Ive been using that since 1980. It comes already lined in a foil pie pan package of two. You can get regular or deep dish. I like that the one you used seems to have enough dough that you can pull extra over the edge and crimp it. I will try to look for Pillsbury in the roll at Sam's or Costco's or BJ's. Thanks for that.

[@marthaholcomb8148]

Tammy and (Chris) Mr. Camera Man, I love your home. I think it is beautiful! I love coconut anything, your pie looked so tasty. Please pray for my daughter she is now taking chemo. Christal has colon cancer. My husband passed away with it 4 years ago. They say it can run in the family, well we know it for sure. I take her to Lubbock for staging Tuesday. Pray for her that they find it staying where it started. God bless your family, may they stay healthy.

Hi Tammy & Chris! The kitchen looks great! Sound quality is good, too! Both my grandmothers and my mother called this French Coconut pie. To serve my crew this pie, we either make about 3 pies at a time or sometimes use a half-sheet pan and make a "slab pie'. Either way, we have enjoyed this recipe countless times! You know with my crew, there are never any leftovers! Thanks for the demo of another recipe, y'all!

[@maryluyoung7073]

The kitchen remodel is just beautiful ❤ The lighting and sound is great quality

[@madelineschultz4968]

I made this pie a month ago. It was a big hit! That's why Im making it for Thanksgiving tomorrow! Its so easy, too! Thanks!

[@CollardValleyCooks]

Glad you liked it!!

[@dianekeiser9415]

Tammy, I enjoy your channel. We love coconut and I use coconut cream, coconut oil , coconut extract along with vanilla extract for the custard and toasted and untrusted coconut. No butter. An egg custard with just coconut is just not enough for us. I grew up with my grandparents on a farm and ranch in the 60s and 70s, and she was the best cook and baker. Recipes can be improved without hurting the memories of our past. I think you are such a hard worker. Thank you for what you do.

[@janettesmith369]

You're right! I don't have... never had a rooster! and I have it too!

[@katgirlsue]

I love this pie but I think I’ll try to make the “Impossible Pie" version. You should introduce your audience to "impossible pies" because there’s a whole generation out there that doesn’t know about the magic of these pies! They’re so easy, quick & delicious. The best part is being able to make a pie without a crust.

[@teachermarikitkat]

do you have a recipe to share for impossible custard/coconut custard pie baked in the glass pie dish? thanks

[@katgirlsue]

@teachermarikitkat - Google impossible coconut custard pie. It will come up. Betty Crocker website has lots of impossible pies. Maybe our girl Tammy will make some of them for us.

[@giovannibrito7]

l did it in the microwave, & came out better than the oven.

[@cherylmaddox2233]

Have you ever made a coconut pie that makes it own crust. Delicious!!!!

[@Donna-n4q]

I hit the wrong thing. Anyway, it is called impossible pie. I haven't made it in years, delicious too.

[@henrycooks1883]

Custards were my fathers favorite, my husband used to fix the equipment at an egg farm and would come home with 2 flats of eggs every time he went, some times a few times a week, I used to make a ton of custard pies. I miss those eggs, most were double yolkers.

[@LifeisLoveLily]

Looks delicious! I love that you said you feed your sweet hens oyster shells and the good food ❤ shows how much you care for the little cluckers 🐓

You make your pie crust look so much better than I can, although mine isn't a total crash and burn. And yes, it was Pet Ritz . Does anyone remember the frozen Ritz pies in the freezer section? They were great for a quick dessert.

My mom had a recipe like that one but it made its own crust. It was delicious even cold…

[@diannasmith5695]

@YarnLoverRegina, that sounds like the Impossible Coconut Pie made with Bisquick except it uses regular milk not buttermilk. I'm sure if you Google it you'd find it. I don't know how to link it, sorry.

[@lolaottinger3038]

I was late getting that recipe…only got it about 5 years ago and had made it once at my cousins house when she gave the recipe, a couple of months ago I made it again, then I started wondering if I could use well drained pineapple instead of coconut so I tried it and it worked. Next I’m going to use canned cherries.

[@ReginaK2]

[@jobrinaworkman-thomas1551]

Impossible coconut custard pie. INGREDIENTS 4 eggs 1 ¼ cups sugar ½ cup flour ¼ cup butter melted 1 tablespoon vanilla ½ teaspoon salt 2 cups milk 1 ¼ cups shredded sweetened coconut INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 350℉ and grease a 9-inch pie plate. Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the sugar, flour, melted butter, vanilla and salt. Whisk until combined. Add the milk and then the coconut. Stir until combined then pour into the prepared pie plate. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick pressed into the center of the pie comes out clean. Let cool on a wire rack for at least an hour to set up. Serve warm with whipped topping, if desired.

[@stevesmith4051]

That looks delicious, I could almost taste it through the screen. I'm wondering if you could add some chocolate chips to it and make a "Mounds" custard pie?

[@debrareitan5305]

Yes you can. Or just drizzle melted chocolate across the top in two directions!

Note: Never place aluminum foil on the bottom of your oven to catch spills. The foil disrupts the oven's air flow and heat pattern, resulting in uneven cooking. Cleanup is so easy with the tips below that foil is completely unnecessary.

[@kathrynreed9724]

The pie looked delicious. That is my husband’s favorite pie. I could never find the recipe that his mom made but this I think may be the one. The other recipes that I tried just had to much sugar.

In my opinion more people today are more likely to have yogurt in their frig than buttermilk ..... great substitute in a 1/1 ratio

No other coconut like Bakers . Wish they still had the Bakers canned coconut 🥥

[@sherrybaird570]

That looks delicious but I'm afraid I would eat the whole pie by myself. Yet I'm going to chance it maybe tomorrow. My Aunt makes this for my Daddy and she puts pineapple in it instead of coconut. Either way I know it will be so good.

[@titasmom678]

Looks yummy. I've seen other recipes that use coconut milk or sweetened condensed coconut milk instead of regular milk, so maybe Ill try a combo of buttermilk and coconut milk.

I cant get coconut custard pie down here in South Florida which is so sad for me. Its been 30+ years since I have had any. Am gonna try your recipe!

[@marthab255]

I was always told heat reflecting off foil causes more heat and if you want a liner in the oven you should use silicone. I put my pies on a bake sheet in case they run over. So much easier to get out of the oven too. I am such a clutz with small hit things😀I just read about foil no no in oven. I say no to foil too.

After making a batch of butter, I have buttermilk and not the kind from the store which would be cultured. Would that change the taste of my pie or have you ever used real homemade buttermilk? Thank you for your time and happy holidays to you and Kritter.

[@juliebiever6693]

Tammy, please read your Oven Manual, and see is it is safe to line the bottom of your oven with foil. The last three ovens I have bought for remolding my kitchens have all said NO FOIL. If you look back at this video you will see your foils, trying to breath. I just don’t want you to ruin your Cadillac oven. Please take my ADVISE. READ THE MANUAL TO MAKE SURE IT IS OK.!

[@donnastratton8397]

Yeah my manuel says not to, so I just put a foil pan on the bottom rack.

[@RoseSharon7777]

If the heating element is under the metal base, the foil is a big NO NO. I argued with my mother about this for about 6 months until her oven started heating uneven then broke within a year.

[@jettabartholomew1118]
