Categories     Pie

Time 30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 refrigerated pie crust
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup lemon juice, plus
1 teaspoon lemon juice, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 bananas
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained
3/4 cup chopped pecans
3/4 cup maraschino cherry, well-drained
hot fudge

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Place pie crust dough on a pizza baking sheet.
  • Press down firmly and stretch so that the crust laps a touch over the edge will shrink slightly.
  • Bake until slightly golden.
  • Remove from oven and let cool.
  • Meanwhile, by hand, mix milk, 1/4 cup lemon juice and vanilla together in bowl.
  • Chill.
  • Slice bananas and toss in remaining one teaspoon lemon juice so they don't turn brown on the pie.
  • Pour off excess lemon juice and set bananas aside.
  • Spread chilled milk mixture on cooled crust, leaving empty a 1/2 inch space from the edge (to look like a pizza).
  • Decorate the pie with banana slices, pineapple chunks, pecans and cherries.
  • Warm Hot Fudge Sauce and drizzle on top.
  • If you like, you can take a can of whipped cream and create slices.

I've never made a pie before, but this recipe was easy to follow. My pie turned out great and my family loved it.

This pie is delicious, but it's a little too time-consuming for me. I would prefer a recipe that's a little quicker and easier.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pie turned out really runny. I think I might have added too much liquid.

This pie is really good, but it's a lot of work. I would only make it for a special occasion.

The crust on this pie was a little soggy. I think I would blind-bake the crust next time.

This pie is a little too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling.

I've made this pie several times and it's always a hit. I like to add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. Yum!

This pie was a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not a huge fan of pie, but this one was really good. The crust was nice and flaky, and the filling was tart and sweet. I would definitely make this again.

I made this pie for a potluck and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved it. The only thing I would change is to use a bit less sugar in the filling. It was a little too sweet for my taste.

This pie was absolutely delicious! The combination of sweet and tangy was perfect, and the crust was flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this again.
