Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a 9-inch pie plate with prepared pie pastry.
Beat sweet potatoes and egg yolks together in a bowl until smooth. Mix milk, 1/2 cup white sugar, coconut, melted butter, salt, nutmeg, and vanilla extract into sweet potato mixture, pour into prepared pie pastry.
Bake in the preheated oven until pie is set, 35 to 40 minutes.
Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until foamy. Gradually add 6 tablespoons sugar, beating until meringue is glossy and stiff peaks form. Spread meringue over hot pie. Bake in the oven until meringue is golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes more.
