The Best Ever Coconut Pie

The pie is baked in a pastry crust.

Unfortunately, custard-based pies don't freeze well, but it probably won't last long anyway!

Use a frozen prepared crust, a refrigerated pie dough, or your favorite homemade pie pastry.

4 teaspoons lemon juice (fresh)

1 teaspoon vanilla
