O.M.G . - I have to try this. I love coconut. This looks amazing.

My husband loves coconut cream pie. This sounds close.
Someone suggested adding cocoa.

I'm skeptical. Let me know if it works. I hate coconut, but wonder if I could leave that off or of there's something else that would work. The crust and custard part sound good.

That's similar to how pecan pie is made - the pecans and custard/goo separate during baking - but that's poured into a prepared crust. I'm interested to hear if the crust really comes out in this recipe.

My mom use to make this pie when I was a kid. There is a custard version too.

This seemed like a good intro for me into gluten free baking, since it’s not dependent on the crumb.

I couldn’t even wait for it to cool. I cut the sugar to 3/4 cup, and used 2% milk. It tastes similar to a coconut flan. Seriously yummy. DH gives it 2 thumbs up.

We have made impossible pie many times and enjoyed it. Thanks for the GF recipe! I'll have to give it a try with Enjoy Life flour (since I have yet to find an adequate substitute.)
Another science experiment pie recipe you may enjoy: mock apple pie -- even Janelle might be able to enjoy this one (assuming you're not allergic to the other ingredients.)
I saw that Bisquick makes a gluten free baking mix, and Impossible pie was originally a Bisquick recipe, I believe.
My mom used to make a caramel desert with Bisquik. She made dough balls and put them in a square pan, then covered it with a brown sugar mixture. After baking, the liquid was thicker and on the bottom, and the dough rose to the top with a crispy top.
If anyone has that recipe I would love to have it.

Bisquick gluten-free mix contains potato. :-/ The wheat/potato/sorghum allergy combination is frustrating.

Ah, forgot about the potato.
It was even better today, chilled. This is a very, very unfortunate discovery. ;D

Decided to make this today. Forgot to make sure I had all the ingredients and had no white sugar, so I used brown. Also, it asks for 10 pie plate and mine is only 9 1/2.
So....I made it but didn’t pour it all into the pie plate. I also made 6 muffin size.
It rose and fell, the way brown sugar cookies do. But, gave the muffin size to the kids and they all want more. That’s a good sign.

When I went to bed there was almost half left. When I went to serve some after lunch, there was only 1/4 left. Which is now gone.
