This Pineapple Pie, inspired by an old Amish cookbook, features a flaky crust and a smooth, custard-like filling made with crushed pineapple, sugar, and milk. It’s a nostalgic, tropical-flavored dessert that’s easy to make and perfect served chilled.

Ingredients

  • 1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk or evaporated milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust (homemade or store-bought)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Line a 9-inch pie pan with an unbaked pie crust and flute the edges.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together sugar, flour, and salt.
  4. Add the drained crushed pineapple and stir to combine.
  5. In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Mix in the milk and vanilla extract.
  6. Pour the wet mixture into the pineapple mixture and stir until fully combined.
  7. Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
  8. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
  9. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack. The filling will firm up as it cools.

Notes

Add shredded coconut to the filling for a tropical twist.Try a graham cracker or vanilla wafer crust for added flavor.Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for arm spice notes.For individual servings, bake in a muffin tin and reduce baking time.Top with whipped cream or meringue for extra richness.
