How to Make Coconut Cream Bars in a Slow Cooker

Cris here.

Coconut Cream Pie is one of my all time favorite pies. That is why I was thrilled to find 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.

Cook on high for 1-3 hours checking regularly for the edges and center to set.
Once set, remove crock insert immediately from the slow cooker. Carefully remove lid so that any liquid does not get on bars. And, cool crock insert on a cooling rack for 30 minutes.
Refrigerate uncovered for at least an hour or until bars cool completely.
