Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 5 tablespoons Coconut oil (melted)
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1.5 cups Pineapple chunks (canned, drained or fresh)
• 2 cups Coconut milk (full-fat, from a can)
• 5 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 0.5 cup Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted coconut oil, and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

Step 5

In a blender or food processor, puree the pineapple chunks until smooth. You should end up with approximately 1 cup of pineapple puree.

Step 6

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk, pineapple puree, cornstarch, and 1/2 cup of sugar until smooth. Place over medium heat and stir constantly.

Step 7

Continue cooking and stirring until the mixture thickens significantly and comes to a gentle boil. This will take about 10-12 minutes.

Step 8

Once thickened, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 9

Pour the filling into the cooled graham cracker crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.

Step 10

Let the pie cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully set.

Step 11

Before serving, sprinkle the top with unsweetened shredded coconut if desired, for added texture and flavor.

Step 12

Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your lactose-free pineapple coconut cream pie!
