For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of coconut extract to the custard mixture. Ensure the young coconut is truly young; the meat should be soft and almost jelly-like for the best texture. If the top of the pie begins to brown too quickly, tent it loosely with aluminum foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking.
