Easy Pineapple Pie Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple with juice
• 0.75 cup white sugar
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 (14.1 ounce) package double-crust pie pastry, thawed
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon white sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Ensure you have all the necessary ingredients ready before you begin.
2. To prepare the pineapple pie filling: In a saucepan, combine the crushed pineapple with its juice, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously, until the mixture thickens. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Let the filling cool down slightly before using.
3. Place one pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Gently pour the cooled pineapple pie filling into the crust-lined dish.
4. Cover the filling with the remaining pie crust. Press and flute the edges to seal the pie. Cut a few steam vents into the top crust, brush with milk, and sprinkle with sugar for a golden finish.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 35 minutes, or until the pie crust is golden brown and the pineapple filling is bubbling. Allow the pie to cool completely before serving. Enjoy chilled or at room temperature.
