PINEAPPLE, APRICOT AND CRANBERRY LATTICE-CRUST PIE
Steps:
- Make filling:
- Bring reserved apricot syrup and dried apricots to boil in heavy small saucepan. Remove from heat. Let stand until apricots soften, about 10 minutes. Drain apricots; discard syrup.
- Stir sugar, cornstarch, pineapple juice and lemon juice in heavy medium saucepan until blended and smooth. Mix in pineapple. Let stand until juices form, about 15 minutes. Cook over medium heat until mixture boils and is very thick, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix in cranberries, butter and dried apricots. Cool completely. (Can be made 8 hours ahead; let stand at room temperature.) Gently mix in canned apricots.
- Make crust:
- Position rack in lowest third of oven and preheat to 400°F. Roll out 1 dough disk on floured surface to 13-inch round. Transfer to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Fold overhang under.
- Roll out second dough disk on floured surface to 13-inch round. Cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips. Brush inside and top edge of crust with glaze. Spoon filling into crust. Arrange 7 pastry strips across top of pie, spacing 1/2 inch apart; brush with glaze. Arrange 7 more strips atop pie in opposite direction. Tuck ends of pastry strips under crust at edge; press to seal. Crimp edge. Brush lattice and edge with glaze.
- Bake until lattice is golden and filling starts to bubble, about 45 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool completely. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)

- 3. Bake at 400 degrees for 25-30 min. until light golden brown.
Tips:
- Prepare the pineapple filling beforehand: You can make the pineapple filling up to 3 days in advance and store it in the refrigerator. This will save you time when you're ready to assemble the pie.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the pineapple: This will help you get clean, even slices. If you don't have a sharp knife, you can use a pineapple corer and then slice the pineapple rings.
- Don't overcook the pineapple filling: The pineapple should be cooked until it is softened but still retains its shape. If you overcook the pineapple, it will become mushy.
- Chill the pie before serving: This will help the filling set and make the pie easier to slice.
- Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream: This will add a delicious richness and creaminess to the pie.
Conclusion:
Lattice pineapple pie is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its sweet and tangy filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a delicious dessert, give lattice pineapple pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
