Impossible Coconut Pie

I would call this recipe from the "Grass Roots" Magazine (Dec 06-Jan 07) more of a slice but it is still delicious.

SERVES 8

4 eggs
220 g caster sugar
100 g butter, softened
100 g almond slivers
1 cup desiccated Coconut
2 Tablespoons grated lemon rind
2 Tablespoons grated orange rind
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup orange juice
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup plain flour

Preheat Oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Place Ingredients into a food processor and blend until well combined. Pour the mixture into a buttered 28 cm pie tin and bake for 1 hour or until lightly browned. Cool and Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving*. Serve with whipped Cream.

* I found this alright when not completely cool.
