You’ll need pecans, shredded coconut, eggs, sugar, butter, and pie crust. These basics are the foundation of this tropical-inspired dessert.
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Preheating ensures even baking and gives your pie the perfect golden crust.
Mix eggs, sugar, melted butter, and vanilla in a bowl. Add pecans and shredded coconut for that tropical flavor. Stir until everything is combined.
A pinch of sea salt balances the sweetness and enhances the overall flavor, making every bite more satisfying.
Boosting the amount of vanilla extract elevates the pie’s aroma and adds a subtle warmth to the filling.
Chopped dark chocolate bits are mixed into the filling for added texture and a hint of chocolatey richness that pairs beautifully with pecans.
Sprinkle toasted coconut flakes on top for extra flavor and presentation. It’s the perfect finishing touch for this tropical treat!
