How to make pineapple pie from scratch
The recipe is super easy to make at home.
Start by preheating your oven to 350 F, then simply stir all of the vegan pineapple pie filling ingredients together.
Smooth the fresh pineapple filling into any homemade or store-bought 9-inch pie crust or graham cracker crust, gluten free if needed.
Bake on the oven center rack for 35 minutes, let cool, slice, and serve.
Leftovers can be covered and refrigerated for up to 4 days, or you can freeze to thaw at a later date.

Today’s recipe is closest to the internet version sometimes referred to as Johnny Cash’s mother’s pie.
Hopefully someday I can also experiment to come up with a homemade recipe for Filipino pineapple pie or the ones McDonald’s apparently sells in Malaysia, because they both sound good too!

I will definitely make the pineapple pie this weekend, using Nasoya vegan wonton wrappers as a crust (easy hack I discovered). We make crushed pineapple and I am confident that it will turn out fine:) Also, yesterday I made your vegan Levain cookies and my skeptical grandparents proclaimed them to be “the best chocolate chip cookie ever”. They’re NOT used to healthy desserts, and Grandma is the “Christmas cookie queen”, so that’s a real compliment. Your site has helped me on my journey to eat whole foods and delicious desserts every day!!

I only made the filling part of this for a coconut cake..and it was FABULOUS!!!

What am I missing here…what is vegan pineapple? Is the meat removed or something? That’s just wierd. Next time I’m at the grocery store I’ma look for vegan pineapple.
CCK Media Team says
Sorry we are confused, what do you mean by vegan pineapple? The ingredient list just calls for pineapple.
Adeline says
Vegans won’t eat dairy because it comes from a cow. Also won’t eat eggs because they come from a chicken. They eat vegan cashew cheese.
Susan says
Do you drain the canned pineapple first or add it as-is with the juice?
CCK Media Team says
Just add the whole can!
V Jones says
Delicious!
Elisabeth says
Can you use fresh pineapple and coconut sugar instead?
CCK Media Team says
Absolutely! Just make sure you crush the pineapple first so it’s reminiscent of canned crushed pineapple in texture.

I did it with the cream cheese and its baking now. Was in 35 min but center still doesn’t look set. Should I bake longer? Or will it set up while it cools?
CCK Media Team says
Hi! It sets while it cooks 🙂
