• 3 level tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 cups canned pineapple
• cooking pot
• stirring spoon
• stove-top burner
• oven

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

2. Line pie pan with bottom pie crust and lightly moisten crust edges with water.

3. In cold cooking pot, stir together sugar, salt, and cornstarch.

4. Add pineapple and stir.

5. Heat pineapple mixture over medium heat, stirring steadily, until mixture boils.

6. Pour hot mixture into prepared pie pan.

7. Immediately add top pie crust and finger pinch seal edges.

Tips & Warnings

• If using a cookie sheet under the pie during baking [to catch possible spills], be sure to have sheet in oven during pre heating so the pie will bake evenly.
• Be careful of hot pie filling when sealing crust.
