Fresh Pineapple Pie TNT

[jkath]

This is one of the easiest pies I can remember baking.
Tastes like an apple pie with a tangy kick.
It was also perfect in serving - no drips, and
kept it's shape well. I served it warm,
with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the top.
(I used one of the "Golden" pineapples, btw)



FRESH-PINEAPPLE PIE

Pastry for 2-crust, 9-inch pie, unbaked (I used Pillsbury)
3 cups fresh pineapple chunks
3/4 cup sugar
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter

Line 9-inch pie pan with pastry. Mix remaining ingredients and
cook, stirring until thickened. Pour into lined pie pan.
Adjust top crust and seal edges well. Bake in preheated hot oven
(425F.) for 25 to 30 minutes. Serve slightly warm or cold.

I've never had pineapple pie. I love pineapple though. Thanks for sharing, jkath. Can't wait to try it.

[jkath]

I'd never had one either - didn't know they existed, but I had this pineapple just sitting on my counter.....and the rest is....well, gone!
It would be a great dessert for a backyard chicken teriyaki bbq, I think.

WOW,that sounds "DELISH". Another way of doing it though as my cousin taught me years ago is to instead of putting the pastry cover on top and cooking, she puts a merangue( God, I cant spell that word, so Dumb, the whipped up egg whites), I hate it when I cant spell something, and then cooks that in the oven for how ever long it takes, you can also use tinned pineapple, crushed would be good, but no where near as nice as the fresh pineapple. But try it , it is soooooo delish.

its "meringue", spiritwolf!

and....gotta say that sounds great alternative for my gluten free DH. Thanks for the idea.
