Coconut Banana Creme Pie

Submitted by: June Shockley

My good friend, Dee Fitzsimmons gave me this quick and yummy recipe that she created herself. I love the crust idea. I think it would be great with chocolate pie too. Here is a quick dessert recipe for you! 

Coconut-Banana Creme Pie

 Crust: melt real butter in frying pan and add sweetened shredded coconut.

 Stir until browned and toasted.

 Press immediately into a pie pan, as this serves for the crust of the pie. It will firm up and does not require baking. Filling:

 Fix package of vanilla pudding. (not instant) Cook as for pie and when thickened, cover with saran until cool.

 Slice bananas into pie shell

 Mix one small tub of cool whip into cooled pudding.

 Reserve a dollop of cool whip for decorating top of pie.

 Pour pudding/cool whip mixture into pie shell covering bananas.

 Add dollop of creme in center of pie and sprinkle a little coconut on top of it.

Refrigerate. Yummy!
