I assume that means there are no coconut allergies involved. I've had 
some nice results using canned coconut milk (essentially almond milk 
made from coconut, as opposed to coconut water, the liquid inside the 
coconut, which is sometimes called milk, or coconut cream, which is a 
usually-sweetened, reduced product a bit like condensed milk) in 
coconut custard pie. Is that the kind of thing you're talking about? 
Other than that, you might want to add some animal-fat richness to it 
by slightly increasing the egg yolk content...
