Sela's Pineapple Pie image

This is a classic from the Friendly Islands. It makes a huge amount but I tend to double the recipe, use a roasting dish as the pan...and it all goes. Great for big families, pot luck dinners. A Tongan treasure.

Followed the recipe exactly and the pie turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use fresh pineapple instead of canned. Other than that, it was perfect.
