LOVED it & recommend a little more clarity on the cooking time for the new bakers.  I started w/ toasting 1 cup coconut for 5-7 minutes in oven at 350.  When combining ingredients together-turn temp to medium-high heat, and use a whisk. Add egg yolks slowly (whisking the entire time you add them). Then, bring heat down to medium heat and begin whisking constantly for about 5-7 minutes or until thick and bubbly 4.) Gently fold in butter, vanilla and roasted coconut.  Allow to cool for 10 minutes.  Wrap with plastic wrap (Custard sometimes has a top layer of film on it & plastic wrap will easily lift it)  Let it cool for at least 3 hrs. Then top w/ whipped cream , 1/2 cup of additional roasted coconut & bananas.

This is really good but is vastly improved with the following: 1. Add 2 tablespoons of dark rum to the custard mix -while cooking. 2. Add 1 chopped/minced banana to the custard mix - after cooking. 3. Make your own graham cracker crust - be sure to add nutmeg to the crushed grahams. 4. Add tablespoon of dark rum to the fresh whipped cream topping. 5.  After icing with whipped cream and sprinkling copiously with toasted coconut, rim outside of pie with layer of banana slices on edge.

Delicious! I thought this was a very good recipe. I had never made a banana cream pie before and I thought that it was very easy. I made my own graham pie crust which is definately the way to go. The toasted coconut complimented the banana very nicely and I LOVE coconut. My only complaint and the reason why I did not give it five stars is because the condensed milk was not my favorite so I will probably look for a different sauce base the next time I make it. However great overall.

I seriously wish without a doubt wish I could give this recipe 1000 stars because it was a hit! I made for a party and got a lot of positive comments. I even got a letter from someone saying it was the best pie they ever had! But I thought that the pudding mixture could have more coconut flavor so I added alittle more than a tablespoon of light coconut milk which added loads more of coconut flavor! If you don't have (light) cocnut milk, just add coconut extract instead! Maybe just a little more banana flavor, but still amazing!

I always get compliments when I make this pie. Simple yet something different. The hardest part is not burning the coconut while toasting...opps there I go again!!!

I made this last Thanksgiving and it was a hit. I love the combination of the banana and coconut. It was also very easy to make.

I made this in a hurry to quench my craving and loved it!! The banana and coconut compliment each other so well. My family loved it. Defiantly making it again.

Excellent! I am over 60 and have been a total failure at pie making all my life! I followed this recipe exactly. It not only looked fabulous, it was also very, very yummy! I feel like I have reached a milestone in my life! Next time I will probably sweeten up the whipped cream a bit more. Other than that, I won't change a thing. Can't wait to be asked to bring a dessert at the next gathering. I will be a superstar! Thanks for sharing!
