Ingredients
-
2 large eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons of margarine, melted
1 cup of skim milk
1 tsp of imitation vanilla extract
1/4 cup of self-rising white flour
1/2 cup of sugar
18 tsp (about 1/3 cup plus 2 tsp. of Splenda)
4 oz (about 1/2 of a 7 oz. bag) of flaked coconut
Directions
Combine the beaten eggs, milk, melted margarine, and vanilla extract in a large bowl with a pouring spout (preferably).
Mix the flour, sugar, and splenda together in a mixing bowl; combine well.
Slowly pour the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients, incorporating well. It usually add the liquid in about 4 steps. Mix well; there should be no lumps. Mixture will be very thin.
Add in the coconut and mix well.
Pour into a well greased (I use non-stick cooking spray) glass pie pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 35 to 50 minutes, until the top is lightly browned and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. It will still look slightly undercooked but will firm up as it cools. It forms a thin crust while cooking.
This pie is tasty warm, but is really delicious once it's cold. So I make it a day ahead and stick it in the fridge. So it's a great make-ahead dessert for busy parties or events. You can serve with ice cream, mint springs or whipped cream if you want, but it doesn't need anything else!
Makes 1 pie, 8 servings, at less than 120 calories per serving!

This is one of my most fav racipes, I love coconut :o) I did make a couple changes though. Instead of sugar I used 1 cup of splenda and instead of skim milk I used evaporated skim milk. Next time Im going to make a double batch in a sheet cake pan and have them as bars. Thanks so much for this!!!! - 3/30/12

My dad is diabetic, so I have to cut down on the sugar and fat for him. Alas, we don't have my grandmother's original recipe as she just eyeballed everything so we don't have measurements.
