Caitlin's Pineapple Pie


Pineapple Pie

1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
¾ c. white sugar
3 Tbs. cornstarch
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple with juice
1 Tbs. lemon juice
2 Tbs. milk
1 Tbs. white sugar

Preheat oven to 425°F
In a medium saucepan combine sugar, cornstarch, pineapple with juice, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened, then allow to boil 1 minute.
Cool slightly and pour mixture into pastry-lined pie pan. Cover with top crust and seal. Make a few steam vents in crust, then brush with milk and sprinkle with sugar. Place in preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
