The night before, place 3 cans of full-fat coconut milk (2 for the pastry cream, 1 for the whipped topping) in the refrigerator upright. This allows the thick coconut cream to separate and solidify at the top.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs, 3 tbsp granulated sugar, and melted dairy free butter until the mixture resembles wet sand and holds together when pressed. Press firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10 minutes, until the crust is set and lightly golden at the edges. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
