Instructions
- 1
Toast the coconut for the crust and garnish: spread 3/4 cup total sweetened shredded coconut (1/2 cup for the crust, 1/4 cup for garnish if using) in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant, about 3–4 minutes. Watch closely, as it can brown quickly. Transfer to a plate and let cool.

Make the crust: in a mixing bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup toasted coconut, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Pour in the 6 tbsp melted butter and stir 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. Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
