Ingredients

  • cups coconut or shredded
  •  egg yolk at room temperature
  •  eggs at room temperature
  • 0.3 cup juice of lemon fresh
  • tablespoon lemon zest grated
  • 1.5 pints raspberries fresh
  • 0.5 cup butter unsalted
  • 1.5 cups granulated sugar white

Equipment

  • bowl
  • baking sheet
  • sauce pan
  • oven
  • whisk
  • sieve
  • plastic wrap
  • pie form

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Spread the coconut onto a baking sheet, and bake in the preheated oven until lightly toasted and golden, about 10 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  3. Mix the coconut and 1/2 cup melted butter in a bowl, and chill until it begins to firm, about 15 minutes. Pat the coconut mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Chill until set, at least 30 minutes.
  4. Place sugar, 1/2 cup of butter, lemon juice, eggs, and egg yolks in a saucepan.
  5. Place over low heat, and whisk constantly until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Do not boil. Strain the custard through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl, and stir in the lemon zest.
  6. Place a sheet of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the custard, and chill thoroughly.
  7. Spoon the lemon custard into the coconut crust, and top with fresh raspberries.
