Impossible pie blends together a simple mixture of ingredients to form a creamy custard pie with coconut and vanilla. No pie crust is required—this recipe creates its own crust in the oven!

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled
1 cup sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups 2% milk
3/4 cup sweetened shredded coconut
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Confectioners' sugar, optional

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. Blend together butter, sugar, eggs, flour and salt. Add milk, coconut, and vanilla. Pour into a well-greased deep-dish pie pan.
