This was yummy and so easy to do. Only thing is I wish I'd of browned the pie shell first but since it said to use an unbaked pie shell I did. Didn't like how the bottom of the pie shell turned out but other than that, it was really good.

I made this for my pineapple loving husband. We tried it warm and cold. They both tasted good but we preferred it cold. Thanks Nancy Van Ess. Bullwinkle

This is delicious! I was skeptical while making it... so few ingredients to make a pie??? I'm SO glad I tried it!! I did use 1/2 cup brown sugar , as the recipe states that you can , made no changes whatsoever, and was rewarded with a very sweet, custardy type pie! I baked it for 45 minutes , as stated , the only thing I did was put strips of foil around the edge of the crust until about the last 10 minutes of baking so it didn't burn. Excellent pie, thank you for the recipe!!

This pie was sickeningly sweet. It had a decent flavor with the browned top being kind of candied, but it was definitely not a typical fruit pie. Extremely sweet.

Have you ever heard of putting cornflakes in the bottom to soak up some of the juice?
