Coconut Cream Pie (No-Bake)

Toasting the shredded coconut for the topping while leaving the coconut inside the filling untoasted is what gives this pie two distinct layers of coconut flavor, from mild and creamy to deep and nutty.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups almond flour (crust)
  • 3 tbsp dairy-free butter, melted (crust)
  • 2 tbsp allulose (crust)
  • 1 tbsp unflavored gelatin
  • 3 tbsp cold water
  • 2 cans full-fat coconut milk
  • 1/3 cup allulose
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, plus extra toasted for topping

Method

  1. 1

    Mix almond flour, melted butter, and allulose, press into a 9-inch pie dish, chill.

  2. 2

    Bloom the gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes until spongy.

  3. 3

    Warm the coconut milk and allulose in a saucepan until steaming, whisk in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved, then remove from heat and whisk in vanilla and shredded coconut.

  4. 4

    Toast the extra shredded coconut for the topping in a dry skillet 2-3 minutes until golden, while leaving the coconut mixed into the filling untoasted — this contrast is what gives the pie two distinct layers of coconut flavor, mild and creamy inside, deep and nutty on top.

  5. 5

    Pour the filling into the chilled crust and refrigerate at least 4 hours until set (plus 4h chill). Top with toasted coconut before serving.
