Thank you Nana. I will add you to my cooking teachers list. I like teachers who go step by step and making cooking easy. Thanks again
I always loved my mom’s custard pies, she passed before I could learn how to make them. Thanks for showing us this one... it brought back many memories. Praying all is well with you and your family.
Nana, you are such a blessing in my life! That pie looks scrumptious and, although I can no longer eat that kind of food, the memories bring me much joy. Hugs from Toronto!
Thanks for sharing the recipe the pie looks great, hope all is well with your family
Nana...2 hours ago I made a coconut custard pie USING YOUR FLAKY CRUST RECIPE....and it is SOOOOOOOO good. Thank u so much for sharing your cooking wisdom with the world. U are DEFINITELY a star.
Hi Zachariah
Thanks for your comment on your success. I'm not a star but the pie crust sure is. I'm amazed when people say it couldn't possibly be good and they won't even try it!
I hope you're still putting out videos. I love the way this coconut pie looks. But, don't ever be ashamed of showing your cookbook. I think like you do about them - the messier they are, the better the recipes in them must be. I know how a few cookbooks I have, have a few smudges here and there. 😻 TYSM for sharing this video with us. I'm probably gonna make this pie tomorrow morning or afternoon cause it looks so yummy - good. 😋
LOVE this! I appreciate your various extra cooking tips also! 🥰
I made this coconut custard pie and was superb. Thanks
Coconut and custard are my boyfriends two favourite foods so I'm going to make this for his birthday! Thank you so much! ❤
I don't think I've ever had a coconut custard pie so you can bet this is on my "to try" list now! Also, love the apron this episode! Hope all is well with your husband.
I love coconut pie. It's my favorite pie of all. I'm going to make yours. It looks great. Thanks for sharing
Love this pie! I'm making it again today! Thanks for the recipe.
Looks easy and so good. You take the fear out of pie making for me.
Thank you for this wonderful video! I'm happy I found you and looking forward to more. Very pleasant voice!
This looks amazing! Thank you😊
I have used this recipe twice now. Both times the pie was fantastic! Thanks so much for sharing!!
Hi,
I love to hear from a happy baker!
Nana
I made this and it’s unbelievably delicious!!!
Wow! This is really delicious! Pretty easy, too! (I had a premade crust in the freezer.) Perfectly fit the shell!
You have a very pleasant personality. I like your teaching about baking and cooking. I subscribed.
I love your beautiful kitchen and stainless steel mixing bowl.
You are very nice and encouraging 😀😀
Hi sweetie my name is Elizabeth love ur recipe's love it mmmm yummy delicious
This looks fantastic. I am going to try this. Thank you
Thank you so much for sharing your recipe. I’ll try it.
I have been following your original pie crest recipe for years now and i love it, we all love it, my mama does too, thank you. I was also wondering if coconut milk would work with this recipe? I imagine it would. Thanks again. 🙏🏽💕
The theory behind scalding the milk is that it improves the texture of the custard...i find that just bringing it to room temperature is good enough.
Nice recipe.I will try and bake also taste .
Another great recipe and video Gloria & John!
Than you so much
for your recipe as always, so easy to understand.
We made this pie and it is DELICIOUS.
This is a nice recipe, I think I'll try it.
Ill make it now.....great idea!!!!!! thks Nana,
Whenever I'm making a pie that is very liquid like this or pumpkin pie, , I fill it about three-quarters away full put it in the oven put the rest of the liquid ingredients in a measuring cup and fill up the pie the rest of the way while it is in the oven . Thanks for the video

Hi Nana, I really enjoy your channel!!! You gave no oven temperature or approximate cooking time....I want to make this pie so please give the oven temperature and time. Thanks & God Bless, Linda
It's there now. Enjoy!
That looks delicious can't wait to try it. Can I have oven temperature and cook time please. Thank you
Absolutely Love Your Show
looks really good
Hi Nana,looks a lovely recipe and I am going to try to bake it too. Can you say if the milk that you added was warm or did you wait till it cooled down before adding it to the eggs. Also was the pie baked using the fan too in the oven or without. Thanking you. LOVE your videos. Also if i made the pie crust using coconut oil would it be the same weight as the oil you used for yours.Thanking you
I love you you remind me of my Mom❤
Oh that looks delicious that's our daughters favorite pie thank you
Making this for Thanksgiving tomorrow, thank you for sharing!
I just got done doing this coconut pie, just waiting for it to cool, so I can put the toppings on it, and put it in the broiler, and get some oh my goodness!
love your recipes
Hi nana I’m going to try your pie crust recipe never did one with cooking oil before I always use margarine and crisco but my Lord Yours look so delicious that I am going to have a go at it. One question is that store bought coconut or can you use fresh grated coconut. Thanks nana
Hi Sheila
I really don't know but there is some sweetener added to the packaged and it is grated very finely, Nana
Yup. I pick this one to make! Thanks. Im adding extra topping ;)
Looks yummy. I bought one of those cookbooks as well, I grew up in the 70's/80's and it was a book my mom went to a lot. Tried and true. You don't have any yummy baked rice pudding recipes do you? The kind that gets the pudding on top?
Gona try this out soon 😋
Thanks for sharing wow I got to try it ASP
I would love to see you do more videos. Maybe main meal dishes????????
I tried your coconut custard pie today, and it did taste pretty good but the recipe I use calls for evaporated milk instead of regular and I like that the best. Hope you will try it with evaporated milk and see what you think. Thanks Nana
❤❤❤
Hi Nana,When you say 2 1/2 cups of milk is this measured from the glass liquide measuring cup or the cups for the dry ingredients. I'm asking this as i measured mine from the glass one which gave me 625grams and it was too much for my 9inch baking tin. I never had enough dough to bake it into a slightly larger one. I tried the coconut oli too and i had to stop and make it with the veg oil as the coconut pastry was breaking into bits and was unable to roll as it got harder when cooling and was breaking.But I just poured what I could and added the liquide that was left into little small tartlets tins with no pastry. will see how they turn out.But will keep trying as it looks so lovely and i love coconut too :-)
maybe I'm biased but i hit subscribe within the first 15 seconds haha
I'm panicking, where is Nana is she OK? Just found her & LOVE her. Bingeing!
Hi Gloria. This pie looks so DELISH. However, I am confused about the coconut. Am I supposed to take a half cup out of the 31/2 oz??
I'd love to see the recipe in the "more info" section so I can copy & paste.....just a suggestion....love your channel!
It's there now,Kevin.enjoy!
that's perfect!
thanks nana
Can I use pastry pie crush where I lay it out in a pie dish?
Hi Nana , love watching you but could you tell me how much coconut you put in the pie & what temperature & how long you backed your pie please ? 😘
Can you use half and half instead of regular milk?
Nice
Making this today!
Mmmmmm
Can you use sweetened condensed milk along with the 2percent milk
Hi Carol
I have only ever used condensed milk in a recipe if it was called for. I have never used it as a substitute for a milk and sugar combo so I can't tell you how it would work.
Was that a dried shreded coconut? I live in a tropical country where it's not common things to be sold in stores, can i use fresh coconut flesh instead??
I live this pie! This is the third time I’ve made it and this time I had my broiler on high for the brown sugar topping …big mistake! It burned sooo quickly. The topping is fine but the edges of the crust are seared so gonna have to toss🥲.
OOh no! Better luck next time. Broiling is always tricky Nana
You are a Sweetheart ☺💗
Thank you 💗
First of your videos I’m watching. You must be from Philadelphia or thereabouts.
Right you are! Born in Darby and raised in Roxborough area of Phila.
Nana
@@NanasCookery Our Philly accents give us away!
What temperature is it cooked at and for how long
Hi Emily,
400 degrees for 25-30 minutes .Test that a sharp knife stuck halfway between edge and center comes out clean which means the custard is almost set and and will finish after you take it out. It is normal for a custard pie to rise some in the oven and then sink a little as it cools. Nana
Sweetened or unsweetened coconut?
Hi
It would be the coconut that you buy in the bakery aisle which would be sweetened Nana
Can you use coconut milk instead of cow's milk?
I am confused bout coconut. Do you take out a half cup from the 3 1/2 oz. to reserve for topping? Thank you
Yes-you take it out of the 3 1/2 oz. I just measured that amount and it makes a heaping cup and a half so removing 1/2 cup would give you a little over a cup in the pie. You can put more but you don't want to make the pie too dense. thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for answering so soon. I am going to make this for the fourth of July barbeque at my son and daughter-in-law. They both love coconut custard pie. I am so glad that I subscribed to your channel and being able to learn from a master. You are so enjoyable. I feel like I know you. Have a blessed day.
P.S. I am also making Sand Pudding!!!!
Yep, if I could find out the temperature & time I'll be making this🎈
I always for get something. The recipe is there now.
+Nana's Cookery - Thank you honey🎈
Nancy you from Philly?
HI
Is there really an accent?Born in Darby,Pa-raised in Roxborough. Yea Philadelphia!
Nana
@NanasCookery I was born on Darby too! Fitzgerald Mercy hospital. My grandpop Freeman was a fireman and played Santa Claus for about 50 years in Darby. I was raised up Springfield Rd on Clarendon Dr right next to the Little Flower.
Because cooking is chemistry!
I love old cookbooks and I buy the ones that are dirt that no one wants
You're right .They are the best. It means they were really used and often they open right up to the favorite recipe.
How much coconut?
Hi Nel,
The recipe calls for 3 and a half ounces because I think that was the size of the can of coconut. I weighed the 3 and a half ounces and it is 1 and a half cups. I hope you enjoy it Nana
@@NanasCookery Thank you.
It just doesn't sound like a whole lot going into the pie 😵😵I think I am having one of my "senior" moments; temporary brain freeze 😕😕
I need a good chess pie recipe can you help me ms.glory
Hi Mary
There is a recipe for chess pie on nanas cookery. I first tasted it at a fund raiser at the Dallas Texas Art Museum and the recipe is from their cook book/
I never caught how long this baked for
HI
The complete recipe including the baking and broiling info are in instructions under the video Nana
recipe I use call for buttermilk Fourth of cup and a stick of butter
Never said at what temp to cook it ar
Hi Rosa Sorry about that. The recipe is written beneath the video and its 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes Nana
I am a very experienced cook but you did not mention tempurature of the oven or bake time?I figure 350 till its solid set?Eggs you should allways break in a seperate bowl not just because of getting a shell in it but because of eggs with lots of that white stuff in them or a bad egg. Also I tell everyone throw out all your canola oil, soybean oil ,corn oil it causes heart disease.Use coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil but for baking use light olive oil only!! Or coconut oil.
Hi! the temperature and time are there now. Enjoy!
Thanks Nana's cookery.
Due to some heart problems I now have a cardiologist AKA heart doctor. He said *Do NOT use coconut oil!*
@@gardengalsu My husband is also a heart patient and coconut oil is on the Do Not Eat list.
@@janicesosh8643 I hope he is doing well. My sympathies to you as his 'assistant'! lol
Don't like the clumpy topping idea .
Hi Connie
it's just a variation. Just put all the coconut in the pie and forget the topping.
Sorry. But Americans got more to say than they’ve got to eat
