PINEAPPLE PIE

Steps:

• Combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter to the flour mixture. With the help of a fork, mix until the texture resembles coarse cornmeal, then add the eggs one by one and continue mixing with the fork or a pastry cutter.
• Place the dough on a work surface (that is lightly dusted with flour) where you can knead it with your hands. If the dough is very dry, add the two tablespoons of cold milk little by little.
• Divide the dough into two pieces, then press down on them to form two disks. Cover them with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least a half hour. Remove from the fridge when you're ready to bake, and the filling is completely cold.
• To roll the dough, use a rolling pin to flatten each disk on a floured surface. Flatten each piece out to form a circle about 12 inches in diameter and 1/8 of an inch thick. Line your pie dish with the first one and use the other to cover the pie after you've added the filling.
• Place the pineapple (chopped into large cubes), sugar, and cinnamon stick in a large pot. Turn the heat to low.
• In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with the cup of water until it has completely dissolved, then pour this mixture into the pot with the pineapples and stir.
• Keep cooking the pineapple mixture for about 10 more minutes, after which it will begin to thicken, like if you were making a gruel. Once it thickens and changes into a more transparent color, keep cooking for 5 more minutes, then remove it from the heat and allow to cool and discard cinnamon stick. The filling needs to be completely cool when added to the pie crust.
• Line the pie dish with the first disk of dough and pour the pineapple filling over it. Put the other disk of dough over the filling and cut a small vent on the top. Trim the excess dough from the edge of the pie and press down on it to form a seal between the top and bottom halves. Crimp the edge of the dough with your fingers, then brush the top surface of the pie with the beaten egg yolk.
• Bake the pie in a preheated oven at 350ºF for 50 to 60 minutes. When the pie is ready, it will have a golden crust and the filling will be bubbling.

• Continue to pulse just until the crumbs of dough are the size of peas. Then add iced water. Pulse about 4-5 times until the dough barely comes together.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface or place in between two wax paper.
• Press the dough until it holds together in a smooth, flat disk. Divide dough ih half ( one slightly bigger than the other ).Chill for about 30-45 minutes.
• Roll out the largest dough into about 12 inches, for the smaller disk roll it out and cut out dough into long strips for the lattice.
• Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate, gently fit it in, trim any excess dough hanging on the edges, then decorate the edges.
• Refrigerate the pie and strips for at least 45 minutes or until ready to be bake.

PINEAPPLE PIE

Steps:

• In large glass or plastic bowl, stir pineapple, 1 cup sugar and the rum until mixed. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
• In medium bowl, mix 2 cups flour and the salt. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost cleans side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary).
• Gather pastry into a ball. Divide in half; shape into 2 flattened rounds on lightly floured surface. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. This allows the shortening to become slightly firm, which helps make the baked pastry more flaky. If refrigerated longer, let pastry soften slightly before rolling.
• Heat oven to 425ºF. With floured rolling pin, roll 1 pastry round into round 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch glass pie plate. Fold pastry into fourths; place in pie plate. Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side.
• Drain pineapple, reserving juice. Spoon pineapple into pastry-lined pie plate. In 1-quart saucepan, mix 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup flour, the cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir in 1/2 cup of the reserved juice (reserve remaining juice). Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute; remove from heat. Stir in butter. Pour over pineapple. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pie plate.
• Roll other round of pastry into 10-inch round. Cut round into 1/2-inch strips. Place 6 strips across filling. To make lattice top, weave a cross-strip through center by first folding back every other strip going the other way. Continue weaving lattice, folding back alternate strips before adding each cross-strip, until lattice is complete. Trim ends of strips. Fold trimmed edge of bottom crust over ends of strips, building up a high edge; seal and flute. Cover edge with 3-inch strip of foil to prevent excessive browning during baking.
• Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until crust is brown and filling is bubbly, removing foil for last 15 minutes of baking.
• In medium bowl, beat cream cheese with electric mixer on medium speed, gradually adding 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons reserved pineapple juice until smooth and creamy. Serve with pie.

PINEAPPLE PIE FROM BARBADOS

Steps:

• Drain pineapple chunks - keep syrup, add water if necessary to make one cup.
• Heat syrup and add gelatine, stir till dissolved - divide in half. Keep one half in the pot.
• To the half in the pot, add cream cheese. Stir over heat till melted and smooth. Pour into graham cracker crust. Chill until firm.
• Once firm, place pineapple chunks on top, and pour on remainder of syrup to glaze. Keep pie chilled.
• ALTERNATE METHOD: I had a problem with getting the syrup evenly distributed, and I think that the next time I make this, I will mix the pineapple chunks with the syrup (that's been left at room temp) and put it on as a mixture once the pie is firm. Just use a little gentleness when you're putting the pineapple on top.
• ALTERNATE CRUSTS: Digestive biscuits, Marie biscuits, cornflakes or rice krispies can be substituted for the crust Zaar has several variations of a graham cracker crust available; use one of these to make the crust if you don't like premade crusts or as a template for using the other things mentioned.

PINEAPPLE PIE

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, salt and sugar. Add the cubed butter and use a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the dry ingredients.
• Once the mixture looks coarse, with some bits of butter here and there, add the water.
• Continue to mix the mixture using the pastry cutter until it turns from coarse to having long, flattened pieces of crumbled dough. If you pinch the dough with your hands, they should cling together. Using your hands, press the dough together to gather it, divide it into two portions inside the bowl. (Note that the dough may still have loose crumbs. Just try your best to portion it into two).
• Transfer the dough portions into a working surface. Lightly knead each portion for a few seconds just to gather any loose crumbs. Transfer each portion into large pieces of plastic wrap. Seal them well and with the dough wrapped in plastic, gently press the dough together, like massaging it with your fingers and knuckles to make it cling together well. Secure the plastic around the dough even tighter to make the shape firmer. Shape each portion into a disc that is about 1-2 inches thick. Chill them in the fridge for 4 hours or overnight.
• After chilling, Take out one of the dough portions from the fridge. Allow the dough to sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. On a floured board, use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a circle (not perfect) that is 1/4 inch thick. If you are not sure, just place your 9 inch pie pan on top of the rolled dough, the rolled dough should be bigger than your pan.
• To place the dough in your pie pan, first gently wrap the dough around your rolling pin. We use the rolling pin as your carrying tool. Lift the rolling pin over the pie pan and gently lower it, centering the dough into the plate. Gently unwrap the dough and ease it into to sides of the pan. The crust will look messy with all the excess dough hanging out, leave it there. We will trim it later. Refrigerate the pie shell while you make the filling.
• In a medium saucepan, combine cornstarch, sugar, crushed pineapples (remember, do not drain), lemon juice and the cinnamon stick. Stir well until the sugar and cornstarch are dissolved.
• Bring the pan to medium heat and stir the mixture regularly until it is thick and most liquid is absorbed. You want a consistency like a thick oatmeal and the look of a rough gel. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
• Pour and scrape the filling into the prepared pie shell. Brush the sides of the crust with egg whites.
• Preheat oven to 350 F. Take the second dough portion out of the fridge and let it rest for 10 minutes or until it is pliable enough to roll. On a floured surface, roll it out into a 1/4 inch thick circle. Again, wrap the dough onto the rolling pin. Lift the pin and lower it over the pie, centering the dough. Now merge both the crust together by pressing with your fingers. Trim the excess dough with scissors but leave about an inch overhang. Fold excess dough together inwards to reinforce the edges of the pie. Brush the top of the pie with more egg whites, then sprinkle sugar evenly on top.
• Using scissors, make 3-4 slits on the top crust for steam vents. Bake the pie at 350 F for 50-55 minutes or until the top is golden. Allow the pie to cool completely before cutting. You can serve the pie cold or microwave for a few seconds to warm it up.
