Coconut Buttermilk Pie Recipe

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Fit pie crust into 9-inch pie plate; fold edges under and crimp; set aside.

In medium bowl, beat butter and sugar with electric mixer until creamy. Add eggs, beating well. Add flour and salt, beating at low speed until blended. Stir in coconut, buttermilk and rum extract. Pour into prepared pie shell.

Bake 1 hour, or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Cover pie loosely with foil while baking to prevent excess browning, if necessary. Garnish with whipped cream and strawberries if desired.
