Buko pie is a Filipino dessert made with a young coconut (buko). Because the coconut flesh has not yet hardened, it produces a very creamy custard.

Ingredients

  • 1 fresh young coconut , drained with meat removed and chopped
  • 2 , 12 fluid ounce
  • 1 , 14 ounce
  • 4 large eggs , beaten
  • 0.25 cups white sugar
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Place chopped coconut into a large bowl; stir in evaporated milk, condensed milk, beaten eggs, sugar, and salt. Pour mixture into a round 3-quart baking dish. Place the baking dish into a large roasting pan. Fill the pan with water to about halfway up the sides of the baking dish.

  3. 3

    Carefully place the pan into the preheated oven; bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 60 minutes. Let cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
