Incredible Coconut Key Lime Pie (an Impossible Pie)

This week. Oh, I have been trudging through this week. I feel like everything I do takes twice as long as I thought it would. I had all these ideas about how I would get caught up with things, start spring cleaning. None. None of that happened. I'm not sure what I did exactly. I didn't even go anywhere. Yesterday I finally found my way. I decided to turn off the phone and the computer for most of the day. I tested a few recipes, but when it came to cleaning I just couldn't do it with this beautiful weather. Plus, the dogs were giving me their sad faces. It's amazing I get anything at all done with those sad faces staring at me all the time. It turns out they were right. It was a beautiful day, why weren't we outside? So, I resolved to do better next week and get caught up. Then when I got home I found out that I have been called for jury duty next week. Ugh! Despite the bad timing, I'm a little excited about jury duty. I've never been called before and I'm curious to see how the process works.
So, why on a week when everything seemed to be more challenging than most would I make something called Impossible Pie? Well, that's the secret. Impossible Pie is not impossible at all, but really quite incredible. You mix all the ingredients together, pour it in a pie plate. Incredibly, it separates in the oven forming a chewy coconut crust and a nice custard layer in between. So, I'm not sure how it ever got the name impossible, as it is incredible how easily the whole thing comes together. Most of the recipes I found online were for making two impossible pies. I was pretty sure I didn't need two whole pies in my house, so I adapted the recipe for one incredible pie that is impossible to stop eating.

Incredible Coconut Key Lime Pie (an Impossible Pie)
adapted from Food and Wine

1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan
2/3 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
pinch of salt
1 teaspoon key lime zest (regular lime would work just fine)
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1 cup milk

Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit and adjust the rack to the lower third of the oven. Butter one 9-inch glass pie plate.
In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter with the sugar. Add the eggs and beat until smooth. Stir in the flour, coconut, key lime zest, and milk. Pour the mixture into the pie plate and bake in the lower third of the oven for about 50 minutes, until the pie is firm to the touch and golden. Transfer the pie to a rack and cool completely before serving.
