Old Fashioned Pineapple Pie with Fresh Pineapple

Ingredients

  • 3 cups (24 oz) fresh pineapple (680g) -- You may also use thawed frozen pineapple
  • 1 cup white sugar (210g)
  • 1/2 cup water (120g)
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 3 Tablespoons cornstarch (30g)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 9-inch pie crusts
  • Extra Sugar for top:
  • 1 Tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon light brown sugar

Directions

  1. 1

    Cut up fresh pineapple into chunks. If using frozen pineapple, thaw completely.

  2. 2

    Place one pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan, use a fork to prick a few holes to prevent air bubbles, and then parbake at 350F for 5 minutes. This will help keep the bottom crust from getting soggy.

  3. 3

    Make the filling by mixing all the other ingredients together (order does not matter).

  4. 4

    Once thoroughly combined, pour the filling into the parbaked bottom crust and smooth out.

  5. 5

    Add top crust, crimp the edges, and cut steam vents.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle 1 Tablespoon white and 1 Tablespoon light brown sugar on top of pie.

  7. 7

    Bake at 350F, uncovered, for 1 hour.
