Cream of Coconut Pecan Pie

December 15, 2014 by Dangerously-Delicious.com

Give your pecan pie a little twist by adding cream of coconut… the result is AMAZING!! Your pie will be extra creamy with a light hint of coconut. It’s my new favorite pecan pie recipe and it will be yours soon too!

So this is another recipe given to me by my cousin Mitchell, THE incredible pie maker.  And just like the last pie I made, this one is crazy good too! My cousin is currently studying at UF on a scholarship majoring in Chemical Engineering with a minor in Biomolecular Engineering. What a mouthful that is! Not only is Mitch an incredibly genuine person who loves his parents and family, he’s a hard-working, honest,  GQ looking guy with Christian values and morals. Guys like him are rare, I know, but they DO still exist! I, for one, am married to one! Even though Mitch chose an incredibly difficult major he dreams of owning his own pie shop one day! I think it’s so funny that someone who chooses an incredibly difficult major and career path longs for simplicity and creativity. I believe him though. He’ll do it. He’ll have his own shop and it will be uh-mazing!! I know it!!

This pie is creamy and light. Using cream of coconut does not interfere with the texture of the pie. There aren’t any coconut flakes, just added creaminess and flavor. I think the coconut compliments the toasted pecans perfectly. It’s soooo good! You have got to make this for the holidays! You’ll be so happy you did! Did I mention it’s SUPER easy too?!

    Oh my! I have to make this soon! I’ll need to taste test it, (a lot), before serving it at Thanksgiving. This looks and sounds absolutely scrumptious! But then, with these ingredients, I don’t know how it could be anything else!
    Many thanks to you and your cousin, Mitchell for sharing this recipe!

    How would you adjust the cooking time if you were using a homemade pie crust? In other words my pie crust is not frozen, help!

      Hi Taryn! I would not adjust the time or temperature. You want to be sure the filling is cooked all the way. I would just put foil over the edges of the pie toward the end to keep it from burning. Hope that helps! I hope you love it! I already made 2 this morning in preparation for tomorrow. Happy Thanksgiving!

    I love seeing a pecan pie recipe without all the corn syrup! I’ll definitely try this one!

    One question…The ingredients say whipping cream and the instructions say heavy cream. Which is it? Or should I use “heavy whipping cream”? 😄

    • Dangerously-Delicious.com says

      Yep. You got it. Heavy whipping cream. I should change that. Thanks!! Hope you love it as much as we do! It’s a gem.

    I am going to try this tonight. Is the cream of coconut one cup or one can?

    Silly question but is the butter melted? It doesn’t specify.

    • Dangerously-Delicious.com says

      November 13, 2016 at 2:11 pm

      Hi Nicole! It can be softened or melted. Either will work.

    Question, this is my first time baking a pecan pie so this might be silly to ask but the instructions says to stir the pecans….meaning into the cream of coconut mixture? How do u get the pecans spread on top like the picture shown?

    • Dangerously-Delicious.com says

      The Pecans will naturally rise to the top when you bake it. Just stir it all together and the magic will happen in the oven;)

My name is Crystal Dangerfield and I am so excited to bring you tried and true recipes that my whole family and I enjoy together. I love being in the kitchen and trying new recipes. Of course we have our favorites, but my kids are pretty good sports about trying new things. I refuse to buy ready-made frozen meals and refrain from fast food. My kids do not know what a “happy meal” is and I want to keep it that way! My husband was diagnosed with Celiac’s Disease several years ago and I have had to learn how to alter recipes into gluten free versions that the whole family still loves.
