Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Place chopped coconut into a large bowl; stir in evaporated milk, condensed milk, beaten eggs, sugar, and salt. Pour mixture into a round 3-quart baking dish. Place the baking dish into a large roasting pan. Fill the pan with water to about halfway up the sides of the baking dish.

Carefully place the pan into the preheated oven; bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 60 minutes. Let cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
