Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
3 eggs, separated |
1 (8-ounce) can crushed pineapple, un drained |
1 tablespoon butter or margarine |
1 baked (9-inch) pastry shell |
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar |
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar |
Directions:
1. Combine 1 cup sugar and flour in a heavy saucepan; add egg yolks, pineapple, and butter, stirring well. Cook mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and comes to a boil. Remove from heat. Cool slightly. Pour filling into pastry shell.
2. Beat egg whites (at room temperature) and cream of tartar until foamy. Gradually add 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, one tablespoon at a time, beating until sugar dissolves and stiff peaks form. Spread meringue over pie, spreading to edges to seal. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes or until meringue is lightly browned. Cool completely. Serve at room temperature.
