Mama Jean’s Magic Coconut Pie

Of, y’all, when I was a little kid I fancied myself a magician. I had all these little magic kits and I would go around making pennies disappear in a trick box, balancing a vase on a piece of rope, doing silly card tricks, and pulling scarves out of people’s ears. Now, when I say people, I mean my family. And looking back (because I know how ridiculously awkward I am) I know that the “trick” was probably obvious, but my entire family would sit and act dumbfounded saying things like “Where in the world did that scarf come from?” (Knowing all the while you could see it in my tiny hand. We have also established that I love pies. Probably because they are just about the gayest food in the whole world. This pie that follows, I had forgotten all about until I opened up my recipe box. It was Mama Jean’s favorite pie. Read on, and you will see why she called it her “Magic” Pie.

I haven’t made this one in years, so I don’t have a photo of it. I think I may make it this weekend. Trust me. You will love this pie. Here is the “Magic Recipe”. See if you can notice what’s missing.

4 Eggs

1/2 cup Self Rising Flour

2 Cups Milk

1 1/2 Cup Shredded Coconut (Sweet kind)

1 teaspoon Vanilla (Clear)

1 3/4 Cup Sugar

Combine all ingredients in the blender. Mix well and pour into a 10 inch glass pie pan. Bake 45 minutes to 1 hour at 300 degrees until golden brown.

Did you figure it out??? THERE IS NO PIE CRUST.

Make it and tell me if you noticed that the crust was missing. Told ya, it’s magic, y’all. Finally I have a trick that works.
