This WW Coconut Cream Pie is incredibly creamy, light, and full of coconut flavor. It is also WW-friendly at 6 WW points per serving. This is mostly a no-bake recipe since you just need to bake the graham crust, and the filling doesn’t require baking.
Compared to other coconut cream pies, this recipe is certainly lightened up. Rather than using butter in the crust, it uses applesauce as a binder! Also, in the filling, we use the sugar-free version of pudding mix and the fat-free version of Cool Whip. It also uses fat-free milk and reduced-fat cream cheese. Each of these swaps helps to keep the points at a reasonable level!
I love this luscious pie because it has such a silky-smooth texture, but it also has shredded coconut pieces in it, which adds nice texture contrast. The coconut flavor really comes through in the filling, and the graham cracker crust complements it wonderfully.

Ingredients in Weight Watchers Coconut Cream Pie
- 1 ¼ cup low-fat graham cracker crumbs
- 3-5 tbsp unsweetened applesauce
- 1.5 oz sugar-free Jello vanilla pudding mix
- 1 tsp coconut baking extract, plus more to taste
- ¼ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 cup fat-free milk
- ¾ cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 8 oz fat-free whipped topping, thawed
- 5 tbsp reduced-fat cream cheese, softened

Instructions for making Weight Watchers Coconut Cream Pie
- Preheat oven to 375F. Make the graham crust by mixing the crumbs with the applesauce, starting with 3 tbsp at first and then adding ½ tbsp more as needed until the mixture resembles wet sand, and you can press it into a pie dish. Evenly press it into a 9-inch dish and bake for 8-12 or until baked and firm. Allow to cool.

2. Make the filling by first mixing the cream cheese with the yogurt until smooth, then add the milk, coconut extract, and Jello pudding mix. Whip with a whisk until it begins to thicken.

3. Fold in the whipped topping and thoroughly mix until thickened and spreadable. Fold in the flaked coconut and then transfer to the cooled crust. Allow the pie to chill for 1-2 hours or until set. Decorate with toasted coconut or whipped cream if preferred (not included in WW points).

Variations and Substitutions
- Coconut Cream Pie with Homemade Whipped Cream: If you don’t want to use whipped topping in the filling, you are welcome to make and use homemade whipped cream in its place. However, it will increase the WW points because of the fat in the cream.
- Coconut Cream Pie with Traditional Pie Crust: you can also use a pre-made pie shell or make another type of pie crust, such as a shortcrust. Coconut cream pie tastes good with a variety of crusts, even Golden Oreo crust!
- Milk Substitutions: Jello pudding mix ideally needs fat-free milk to thicken properly. However, you can use plant-based or other milk types by following the special directions on the box, as they differ from fat-free milk. If you don’t follow them, it may result in a loose pie consistency.
- Lower the Points: You can omit the cream cheese and replace it with more yogurt. You can also reduce the amount of coconut flakes.
- Splurge Version: Feel free to use regular Cool Whip or Jell-O mix instead of the lightened-up versions. You can also add more coconut flakes and cream cheese. You can decorate the top with whipped cream, as in the photos, too.
Tips and Tricks for Making Weight Watchers Coconut Cream Pie
- If the mixture isn’t thick enough for your liking, you can add more Jello mix to help make it firmer.
- Be careful not to overwork the crust mixture when mixing the applesauce and graham crumbs together. Otherwise, it will get a funky texture. Try to gently mix it in your fingers, like if you were mixing melted butter in, so it doesn’t turn into one giant clump.
- It is up to you whether you want to toast the coconut or not. The coconut I mixed in was raw, and then I toasted extra coconut for the top to garnish.
- Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. You can freeze it if you don’t mind a slight texture change when it thaws; this happens because of the Jello and Greek yogurt. It is best to enjoy it fresh or refrigerated.
