The Best Strawberry Coconut Pie Recipes

Steps:

• For the crust: In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the wafer cookies, macadamia nuts, granulated sugar and salt together until the mixture forms fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and pulse until the mixture is evenly combined.
• Press the crust into a 9-inch pie plate and transfer to the freezer until firm (at least 1 hour and up to overnight).
• For the filling: In a medium pot, heat the coconut milk and whole milk together over medium heat. In a small bowl, whisk the granulated sugar, cornstarch, salt, egg and egg yolk to combine. When the milk mixture comes to a simmer, pour about 1/4 of it into the sugar/egg mixture, whisking constantly.
• Return this mixture to the pot and continue to cook over medium-low heat until the mixture thickens and large bubbles pop up from the center of the pot, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the butter, vanilla and shredded coconut. Pour the mixture into the frozen pie crust, cover directly with plastic wrap and refrigerate to cool completely.
• For the toppings: In a medium pot, stir together the crushed pineapple, light brown sugar, cornstarch and salt to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens, 3 to 4 minutes. Cool completely, then pour on top of the chilled pie. Sprinkle the macadamia nuts in an even layer on top of the pie. (The pie can be made up to this point 24 hours ahead of time.)
• When ready to serve, toss the strawberries and honey together in a medium bowl. Arrange in an even layer on top of the pie. Serve slices with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Combine coconut and butter in a small bowl. Put in a 9 inch greased pie pan and press to bottom and up the sides. Bake at 300 for 30-35 mins or until golden brown. Cover edges of crust with foil loosely to prevent over baking. Cool crust on wire rack.
• Combine strawberries and sugar in a large bowl and let stand 15 minutes In a small saucepan sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let stand for 1 minute. Cook and stir over medium heat until gelatin is dissolved. Stir in lemon juice. Pour into strawberry mixture. Cool to room temperature. Fold in whipped cream. Pour into crust. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before slicing. Top each slice with a fresh strawberry and sprig of mint at presentation if you desire.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine coconut and butter. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-in. pie plate. Bake at 300° for 30-35 minutes or until lightly browned (cover edges loosely with foil to prevent overbrowning if necessary). Cool on a wire rack., In a large bowl, combine strawberries and sugar; let stand for 15 minutes. In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over cold water; let stand for 1 minute. Cook and stir over medium heat until gelatin is dissolved; stir in lemon juice. Stir into strawberry mixture. Cool to room temperature. Fold in whipped cream. Pour into crust. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. Unroll crust into a 9-in. pie plate. Trim edge. Line unpricked crust with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil or parchment. Bake 8 minutes. Remove foil; bake 5 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack., In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and water until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in gelatin until dissolved. Refrigerate until slightly cooled, 15-20 minutes., Meanwhile, arrange strawberries in the crust. Pour gelatin mixture over berries. Refrigerate until set. If desired, serve with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Crust:
• Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 350°F. Toast coconut on a rimmed baking sheet until golden brown, 3-5 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.
• Place graham crackers in a large resealable plastic bag, seal, and crush to fine crumbs with a rolling pin or heavy pot. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add toasted coconut, coconut oil, and salt and mix well. Mixture will look quite crumbly and dry at this point, but it will come together as it chills.
• Lightly coat a 9" pie dish with nonstick spray. Transfer graham cracker mixture to pie dish and press evenly and very firmly across bottom and up sides of dish with a flat-bottomed measuring cup (make sure crust extends all the way up to the lip of the dish). Chill until ready to fill (at least 20 minutes).
• Filling and assembly:
• While the crust is chilling, remove coconut ice cream from containers (just peel away container if it's paper, or use a rubber spatula to help slide ice cream out intact if container is plastic). Cut ice cream into 2" pieces and place in a medium bowl. Repeat with strawberry ice cream, placing in a separate medium bowl. Let sit until slightly softened, about 5 minutes, then stir each, separately, with a large rubber spatula or wooden spoon until the consistency of thick cake batter. Transfer bowls to freezer and chill ice cream 10 minutes.
• Remove ice cream from freezer. Scrape strawberry ice cream into bowl with coconut ice cream. Fold together a couple of times with spatula until swirled. Don't overmix; you want thick marbled ribbons. Chill in freezer 10 minutes.
• Scrape marbled ice cream into crust. Using a large spoon, create deep decorative swirls in ice cream (the strawberries will be poured into these divots later). Freeze until ice cream is very firm, at least 6 hours.
• Toss strawberries, lemon juice, and sugar in a medium bowl. Let sit at least 35 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Remove pie from freezer and lower the bottom of the pie dish into a shallow bowl of warm water; hold it there 5 minutes (this will help slices release more easily). Spoon strawberries into divots; if you run out of places to contain them, reserve extras for serving.
• Running the blade of a chef's knife under hot water and wiping dry before first cut and repeating as needed between cuts (this will give you neat sides), slice pie into wedges. Serve with any remaining strawberries alongside.
• Do Ahead
• Pie (without berries) can be made 1 week ahead. Cover with plastic wrap once hardened and keep frozen.
