Doc's Best In Goddamn Show Montana State Fair Coconut Cream Pie

As promised, the baked good that did the best, I'll release the recipe. This is one of my favorite pies of all time, hewed into a perfect custard-based pie that won me my first Best in Show rosette in nine years. And pies is even a tough category!

The other shocking thing: This is one of the easiest pies I make. It's very much "don't worry about it." It even tastes better if you make everything but the topping the day before serving.

“Doc, why don’t you use cream of coconut for the custard?” Friend, I tried for years to get that to work, only to find out that cream of coconut just does not bake up as nice as milk and cream, so I use a nice extract and toast the coconut to get the flavors. 

YOU WILL NEED:

A crust (I presume you can either make or buy a crust. I might even have a recipe here on the blog, I can’t remember) 

Pie: 

5 eggs

¾ cup caster/baker’s sugar 

2 cups of whole milk

½ cup half and half (I believe this is called half cream in the UK)

1 tsp vanilla bean paste

1 tsp coconut extract (I like Olivenation or watkins. Also, bear in mind you may need to use more. I do this to taste and the tsp is a guess on my part. Don’t worry, I’ll tell you where to taste in the recipe) 

Pinch salt

1 cup sweetened flaked coconut

Topping:

2 cups heavy cream VERY COLD (can use whipping or double also, but I prefer heavy) 

2 tablespoons jello or jello style pudding mix, coconut 

Powdered/icing sugar (this will be to taste) 

Decoration: Most definitely toasted coconut. I really like Nuts.com’s organic dried coconut chips, but it depends on how flush I’m feeling--I did not use it in this competition. Macadamia nuts are great, dried pineapple, for this competition I used coconut rolls from costco. This is mostly for visual appeal, so be creative. 

Toast your coconut: Put the oven at 350F. Put some parchment down on a baking sheet, and then put your sweetened flaked coconut on the sheet. Don’t forget to put in a bit extra for your topping decoration. Toast for about five minutes, it will probably need a stir and watch it closesy--coconut burns easy. When it’s a nice pale golden, pull it and up the temperature of the oven to 375F. 

Blind bake your crust. If you haven’t done this before, I think it’s easy but admit maybe not everyone will. Roll your crust out into a pie plate, just like you always would, and then cover the bottom with tin foil, and fill with pie weights or beans, or rice--I’m a big fan of using sugar. Whatever you use. Bake it about 15-17 minutes, it should be lightly brown at the edges. Take out the pie weight you used. Bake it about 5 minutes more, just so the bottom gets very lightly toasted. 

Make the filling! Beat your eggs in in a large bowl until they are very well combined but not whipped. Beat in everything but the coconut itself. NOW TASTE IT. Does it taste coconutty enough, or do you want to add a little more extract? Have an easy hand with the stuff, it’s powerful. Mix in the toasted coconut. 

Yeah, I’m serious, that was the whole of the filling instructions. I told you this was ridiculously easy. 

Bake: Pour your filling (carefully) into the pie crust, and cover the edges of your pie crust so it doesn’t burn (I use tin foil, but they do make fancy pie shields). I like to put it on a jelly roll pan so it’s easier for me to take in and out of the oven. You’re going to bake it at 375F for about 30-40 minutes, but the real test is: if you shake it a little, is it set at the sides but with a little wiggle in the center? That’s when it’s done. 

Let it cool totally. 

Topping! Beat your cold cream and pudding mix together, adding the powdered sugar slowly. I start with a quarter cup and work my way up until it’s as sweet as I like. I prefer a harder peak for this, but soft peaks are acceptable if you enjoy that more. Decorat with your topping choices!

I'M ONLY GOING TO SAY THIS ONCE

I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, you can combine one 8oz can of pumpkin puree with one box cake mix (any kind but spice cake is best) and about 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, drop by tablespoon-ish onto a greased/parchment/silpat cookie sheet, and bake at 350F for 13-16 minutes

if there are no spices in either your cake mix or pumpkin puree i suggest adding warm spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves

THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT WANT THIS INFORMATION GETTING AROUND

#recipe #reference #if i can commit the temp and time to memory i'll be unstoppable #these also bake fine in an air fryer at like 300F 6-8min #they make a pumpkin pie spice blend for the peasants out there #i have made my own speculoos spice blend and that worked perfect

Cherry Hand Pies

I absolutely love when tart (aka sour) cherries are in season. Not only do they make the most delicious cherry pies, check out that vibrant ruby red color! Wow.

When I visited my local farm stand, I purchased a pound of tart cherries. I didn’t have enough to make a full-blown cherry pie today, so I thought I’d make some hand pies instead. They’re so much fun to make. Let’s do it…

Start with enough pie dough for a single crust. I always use my all-butter pie crust recipe. It’s infinitely better than premade crust, and it’s so easy to make. Check out my step-by-step photos here to make with a food processor and here to make it by hand.

Roll the pie dough until it reaches a thickness of 1/8-inch. Cut rectangular shapes that are a bit larger than the cutter you plan to use. Transfer the precut dough to a piece of parchment paper and brush with water. Fill with 2 tablespoons of premade filling.

Top with a second piece of dough and press well to seal. Take care in this step to prevent leaking in the oven.

Use scalloped cutter to make the hand pies nice and neat.

Side Note - If you’d like to freeze the hand pies, this is the time to do it. Just flash-freeze them for a few hours before transferring to an airtight container to store in the freezer for up to 3 months (I like to vacuum seal mine). See my notes below for baking directions for frozen hand pies.

Transfer hand pies to silpat-lined half sheet pan and chill while oven preheats. Just before baking, brush with milk, sprinkle with sugar, and cut vents in top of each hand pie, being careful not to cut through the bottoms.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Oops, you can see I obviously didn’t seal one of the hand pies very well and it leaked all over. Darn, it still tasted good and it was easy to cleanup because of the nonstick silicone liner.

Serve warm or at room temperature. I like to enjoy my hand pies with a dollop of whipped cream, but a scoop of ice cream would be great as well. These hand pies are best served within 24 hour of baking. Check out my notes below for storage tips.

Cherry Hand Pies

makes 8 hand pies

Printable Recipe

Ingredients

chilled single all-butter pie crust (food processor recipe here, or make-by-hand recipe here)

1 pound pitted tart cherries, fresh or frozen (aka sour cherries)

1/2 cup granulated sugar (or more to taste)

2 1/2 tablespoons tapioca starch/flour (see notes below)

zest of 1/2 lemon

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/4 pure almond extract (use the good stuff)

1/4 teaspoon table salt

milk for brushing on crust (see notes below)

turbinado sugar for sprinkling (aka sugar in the raw)

Directions

Place pitted cherries, granulated sugar, tapioca starch/flour, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.

Over high heat, cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens; remove from heat and stir in pure almond extract and salt.

Taste the cherry filling and add more sugar if needed; set aside to cool (spread on a sheet pan to speed the process up).

On a floured pastry cloth, roll the chilled pie dough into a 1/8-inch thin layer.

Cut rectangles of pie dough that are a bit larger than the cutter you plan to use.

Place 2 tablespoons of filling in the center of one rectangle of dough, then brush the edges with water and top with a 2nd dough rectangle; press edges to seal well.

Use scalloped cutter to trim the hand pies into neat shapes and transfer to a silpat-lined half sheet pan; chill hand pies for at least 10 minutes while oven preheats.

Preheat oven to 400F with the rack in the center position.

Brush hand pies with milk and sprinkle with turbinado sugar; cut 3 small slits in the top of each hand pie, being sure not to pierce the bottoms..

Bake center of preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to rest on pan until cool enough to handle.

Notes

Cherry filling can be made up to 5 days ahead; store refrigerated in an airtight container.

An equal amount of cornstarch can be substituted for the tapioca starch/flour, but cornstarch will break down upon freezing so be sure to use tapioca if you plan to freeze these hand pies.

The crust can be brushed with milk, cream, half-and-half, or a beaten egg mixed with a splash of water.

To freeze unbaked hand pies - Prepare them through step 7 above, then flash freeze for a couple of hours before transferring to an airtight container (I like to vacuum seal them). Keep frozen up to 3 months.

To bake frozen hand pies - Place frozen pies on silpat-lined half sheet pan, brush with milk or half-and-half, sprinkle with turbinado sugar, and bake in a preheated 400F oven for 25-30 minutes.

These hand pies are best served within 24 hours of baking. Leftovers should be stored at room temperature, NOT in an airtight container. Storing in an airtight container will result in the crust losing its crisp, flaky texture.

To make a 9-inch cherry pie, double the crust and cherry filling given in the recipe. The filling for this recipe should not be cooked before baking a pie - just mix the filling ingredients well, pour into crust-lined 9-inch pie plate, cover with strips of pie crust to form a lattice top. Brush crust with milk or half-and-half and sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Place pie plate on a half sheet pan before baking for 60-75 minutes in a preheated 400F oven. Allow pie to cool before serving.
