Mock Coconut Pie Recipe: You Will Not Believe What This Pie Is Made With by Sarah Amona

Spaghetti squash! No joke. That stringy, delicious squash is mixed with coconut pie ingredients to create this mock coconut pie recipe. Crazy, right?

The crustless pie filling is made with Splenda (or your favorite sweetener), an egg, light butter, fresh lemon juice, vanilla extract, shredded cooked spaghetti squash, coconut extract and cinnamon for the top. The ingredients are combined and poured into a ramekin before serving baked for about 45 minutes. You could double or triple the recipe and cook it in a pie plate.

Serve this sweet mock coconut pie recipe for dessert or as a fun sweet snack anytime. Store any leftover pie covered in the refrigerator.

Ingredients

• 3 packets Splenda
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon light butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
