Strawberry Coconut Oatmeal Crunch Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Make the crust: Combine the butter and cream cheese in a food processor and process until smooth. Add the flour and salt and process just until the mixture comes together into a ball. Scrape out the dough, shape into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, prepare the crumb topping: Combine the oatmeal, flour and sugar in a small bowl and toss to combine. Add the melted butter and stir until thoroughly incorporated. Refrigerate the topping until chilled, at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Working on a floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thick and fit it into a 9- or 10-inch tart pan with a removable bottom (you can also use a springform pan). Trim the excess dough. Return the pie crust to the refrigerator for 20 minutes. Line the crust with foil, fill with pie weights or dried beans and bake until lightly golden, about 18 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and let the crust cool on a wire rack. Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
• Make the filling: Toss the strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch and orange zest in a mixing bowl. Spoon the strawberry filling into the crust and spread the crumb topping evenly over the berries. Bake in the middle of the oven for 1 hour, or until the filling is bubbly and the crust and topping are golden brown. Transfer to a rack to cool to room temperature before serving.

Steps:

• CRUST: Sift flour with salt. Cut in shortening until particles are the size of small peas. Sprinkle cold water over mixture, tossing until dough is moist enough to hold together. Form into a ball. roll out on floured pastry cloth or board to an 11-inch circle. Fit loosely into pie pan. Fold edge to form standing rim; flute. FILLING: Combine three egg yolks with sugar and mix in salt. Add milk and softened butter. Beat thoroughly. Fold in 1 cup coconut. Set aside. Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Fold into egg yolk mixture. Pour into pie pan. Preheat oven to to 350°F. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Tip: Cracking that big nut: Submerge the coconut in cold water for five minutes first. Then, using a hammer and nail, or, sharp kitchen shears, pierce holes through the "eyes" of the coconut. Drain the coconut milk out of the coconut, pouring it through a fine strainer into a measuring glass (it will be a cloudy/clear liquid.) Crack the coconut with a hammer. Place the pieces in the fridge for an hour to separate the coconut meat from the shell. You'll need to scrape/peel the brown "skin" from the coconut pieces-tedious, but necessary. Then you're almost there! Put the coconut pieces through a food processor to grate the meat. Fresh coconut spoils quickly if not refrigerated.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350*. Stir all filling ingredients together in a a large bowl until well mixed.
• Pour into pie shell. Bake 50-60 minutes, until golden and a toothpick stuck in the centre comes out clean. Filling may still jiggle in the centre.
• Cool and serve (nice topped with spoonful of Cool Whip).

Steps:

• Combine coconut and butter in a small bowl. Put in a 9 inch greased pie pan and press to bottom and up the sides. Bake at 300 for 30-35 mins or until golden brown. Cover edges of crust with foil loosely to prevent over baking. Cool crust on wire rack.
• Combine strawberries and sugar in a large bowl and let stand 15 minutes In a small saucepan sprinkle gelatin over cold water and let stand for 1 minute. Cook and stir over medium heat until gelatin is dissolved. Stir in lemon juice. Pour into strawberry mixture. Cool to room temperature. Fold in whipped cream. Pour into crust. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before slicing. Top each slice with a fresh strawberry and sprig of mint at presentation if you desire.
