Scrumptious Sunday ~ Pies ~ Pineapple cream pie

hosted by Meredith at Mercedes Rocks

Pineapple Cream Pie

2 cups ground ginger snaps*
3 tablespoons butter, melted
40 ounces crushed pineapple, drained WELL, but save the juice
2 cups pineapple juice (juice from the pineapple plus enough water to make the 2 cups)
2 eggs beaten
4 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 + cups mini marshmallows

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Finely ground the ginger snaps and mix with the melted butter.
  • Firmly press the ginger snap mix into a DEEP dish pie plate.
  • Fill the pie plate with the pineapple.
  • In a large saucepan whisk together the pineapple juice, beaten eggs and sugar until sugar is dissolved.
  • Whisk in the cornstarch until smooth.
  • Cook until thick, stirring constantly.
  • Pour over pineapple in shell.
  • Bake 20 minutes.
  • Top with marshmallows and return to oven to bake until marshmallows are golden and crispy.
  • Chill.

*I sometimes use a combination of ginger snaps and vanilla wafers for a less spicy effect.

This looks super easy and yum. Black Bottom Banana Bars? I’ll have to find those, I have 3 bananas I need to use up at home. Made banana bread last night, but I have a few more.
