A Piece of the Tropics Pie image

This pie is a tropical version of a pecan pie that I came up with. Everyone that tries it loves it! With the fruits and macadamia nuts it reminds me of something that would be served on a tropical island, and the addition of the maraschino cherries makes it even great to look at. DELICIOUS and I promise you won't be disappointed !!!

Time 4h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, with juice
1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
2 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ cup flaked coconut
½ cup chopped macadamia nuts
½ cup chopped maraschino cherries
3 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (9 inch) unbaked deep dish pie crust
¼ cup butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a bowl, mix the pineapple with juice, sugar, corn syrup, and flour. One by one, mix in the coconut, macadamia nuts, cherries, eggs, and vanilla. Scoop the filling mixture into the crust. Drizzle the pie with the melted butter.
  • Bake loosely covered with foil for 30 minutes in the preheated oven. I like to sit my pie on a cookie sheet or something in case of spillage. Remove foil, and continue baking 30 minutes. Cool, and chill 2 to 3 hours in the refrigerator before serving.

I'm not usually a fan of coconut, but this pie changed my mind! The filling is so creamy and delicious, and the crust is the perfect balance of sweet and flaky. I will definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pie turned out perfectly. The only thing I would change is to use a little less sugar in the filling, as it was a bit too sweet for me.
