How to Make Coconut Cream Bars in a Slow Cooker

Coconut Cream Pie is one of my all time favorite pies. That is why I was thrilled to findย an incredible Coconut Custard Pie in one of our favorite low carb cookbooks, Easy Keto Desserts. I make it a lot. So it got me thinking of how on earth am I going to make it when we go back on the road in the RV… because going without is NOT an option- ha!

After several tests, I eventually figured out how to make a coconut cream bar version in my slow cooker that I absolutely love.

You can make these bars low carb with sugar substitutes or if you are not eating low carb, just use regular powdered sugar and serve with a side of pie crust cookies. Pie crust cookies you ask? Simply refrigerator pie dough into strips and bake until golden. You’ll never go back to regular pie again.

      Hi Peg!

      We have not tried this recipe with any other flour, so we can’t make any recommendations. However, you can purchase coconut flour on Amazon if you can’t find it anywhere else (referral link: https://amzn.to/39q9JLB).

      Enjoy!

    Hi Cris,
    I really enjoy watching you and your husband on YouTube. This recipe was a great hit. Have you tried making it in the Instant Pot? I make egg custard in the Instant Pot all the time. Maybe it would be similar?
