When I do make a pie, it’s often a cookie pie, or an ice cream pie, like this sprinkle ice cream pie recipe or this unbelievable Irish coffee ice cream pie.

Or a tart! I’m a lover of all things savory at heart, so this Vidalia onion tart is one of my favorite things (the bacon and feta don’t hurt!). This yogurt tart? It’s beyond perfect for summer.

When Robyn of Add a Pinch asked me if I’d be interested in a review copy of her book the answer was an immediate yes – first because she’s a friend, and second because I’ve always been a fan of her gorgeous site and delicious recipes. I knew her book, Add a Pinch, would be just as beautiful (and I was right…I love being right).

It’s full of classic southern recipes made easier and fresher. It just so happens that we love EASY and FRESH here at Rachel Cooks!

This coconut custard pie that clearly caught my eye. It has a short ingredient list and only one crust. You don’t have to prebake the crust and you don’t have to temper eggs or anything like that.

    Yum! Coconut custard pie reminds me of my mother. She made two pies every Saturday (!) and this was one of her standbys when there wasn’t a lot of fruit in season. Thanks for this recipe!

    It means so much to me for you to share this recipe – I sure hope your readers love the pie and that you enjoy the rest of the recipes in the cookbook as much as my family does!
    Thank you so very much for everything! I could just hug you my friend!
