This pie is more traditional Kentucky. But several cajuns have taken a liking to it. Granmere would be real proud of this one. Try adding a half cup of raisins or chocolate chips for a nice difference.
 
Ingredients
1 pie crust 9 inch 1 1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 1/2 cup coconut 1 1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs 1 cup egg whites
 
Directions
Sawdust Pie
As posted on the Forums by 6BONNI

Bake Pie Crust according to package direction. Cool.

Reduce oven temperature to 325F.

In large bowl, combine coconut, graham cracker crumbs, pecans and sugar. In another bowl, beat egg whites just until foamy.

Add to the mixture, and mix well by hand. Mixture will be stiff.

(Optional 1/2 cup chocolate chips to the mixture or 1/2 cup raisin.)

Pour into prepared pie shell. Bake, uncovered, 25 to 35 minutes or until set. Do not overbake. Middle will be gooey.

Optional: You can top with sliced bananas and whipped cream.
