Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for crust)
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 20 ounces Crushed pineapple, canned (with juice)
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar (for filling)
• 1 packet Unflavored gelatin
• 3 Egg whites
• 0.25 cups Granulated sugar (for meringue)
• 0.75 cups Heavy cream, whipped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, 3 tablespoons of sugar, and melted butter until well combined.

Step 3

Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, then let it cool completely.

Step 5

Drain the crushed pineapple, reserving 1/2 cup of the juice.

Step 6

In a medium saucepan, combine the drained pineapple, 3/4 cup of sugar, and the reserved pineapple juice. Cook over medium heat until the mixture begins to simmer.

Step 7

Sprinkle the gelatin over the pineapple mixture, stirring well to dissolve completely. Remove the saucepan from heat and let the filling cool to room temperature.

Step 8

In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/4 cup of sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.

Step 9

Gently fold the meringue (beaten egg whites) into the cooled pineapple mixture until no streaks remain.

Step 10

Fold in the whipped cream until evenly combined.

Step 11

Pour the filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 12

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set.

Step 13

Slice and serve chilled. Optionally, garnish with additional whipped cream or fresh pineapple slices.
