Description
A delicious pecan, coconut, and pineapple pie topped with whipped cream and toasted coconut.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 tablespoon corn meal
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 5 eggs
- pinch of salt
- 1 cup pecans (coarsely chopped)
- 1 cup crushed pineapple (thoroughly drained)
- 1 cup coconut (sweetened)
- 1/2 cup butter (melted)
- 1 pie crust (unbaked)
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/2 cup coconut (toasted)
Instructions
- Beat the sugar, cornmeal, flour, eggs, and salt together.
- Gently stir in the pecans, pineapple, and coconut (don’t beat it). Stir in the melted butter and mix well.
- Pour the mixture into an unbaked pie shell.
- Bake at 300 degrees for approximately 50 to 60 minutes. Remove the pie from the oven. Cover the crust edge with some aluminum foil to keep it from burning. Cook for 15 to 30 more minutes, or until the pie is set.
- Allow the pie to cool and then refrigerate until ready to serve.
- With a mixer, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add sugar and almond extract. Continue to whip until stiff peaks form or until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Top with toasted coconut.
Notes
- You can use 2 crusts to make 2 less-full pies.
