      3 cups flour<\/span><\/p>\n

      3 tablespoons water (approx.)<\/span><\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      Filling:<\/span><\/p>\n

      3 cups coconut, grated fine (blender may ber used 1cup sugar 1 \u00bd cups water<\/span><\/p>\n

      2 teaspoon vanilla<\/span><\/p>\n

      1 teaspoon nutmeg<\/span><\/p>\n

      Preparation:<\/span><\/p>\n

      Prepare filling by combining all ingredient into a sauce pan over medium heat. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes or until liquid evaporates and begins to dry. Allow to cool while you prepare dough.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Cream shortening and butter until blended. Add sugar, eggs and vanilla – mix well. Add baking powder and milk; mix. Combine flour and gradual amounts of water – just enough to hold dough together. Knead dough until stiff enough to roll out. Divide into 4 pieces. Roll out two pieces to fit each a 9 in. pie dish. Fill pie shells with coconut filling. Roll out each of remaining dough and cut into \u00bd wide strips. Lay half the strips (of dough #3) across the filling about 1 inch apart. Lay the remaining strips crosswise to form a lattice pattern. Repeat for second pie. Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes or until golden brown.<\/span><\/p>\n

      This is a wonderful Bahamian Christmas dessert. One that the whole family will love. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and sink into a dessert blist.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n\r\n <\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
