I highly recommend using fresh pineapple, but you can substitute canned or frozen.
Serve with your favorite tea or coffee.

How to Make Old Fashioned Whiskey Pineapple Pie
- To make filling, place fresh pineapple, butter, dark brown sugar, and whiskey in a saucepan. Cook on high for about 3 minutes, then lower heat to low medium.
- Add molasses and vanilla. Mix well.
- Whisk your cornstarch into your cream, then add both to the pan.
- Add the rest of the filling ingredients, save the yolks. Stir well and allow to bubble.
- Beat your egg yolk. Then a few drops of the pan mixture to the yolks. Beat. Then a little more, until the yolks are heated but not cooking as to temper the yolks. When this is accomplished, slowly add eggs to pan while whisking.
- Puree filling with a immersion blender.
- Remove from heat, then pour in a mixing bowl. Place in refrigerator.
- To make meringue, take chilled whites and beat on low for 3 minutes, gradually raising the speed.
- Then add salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla. Keep beating.
- When glossy, add a teaspoon of sugar at a time. When all is in, beat until you have soft to strong peaks.
- Refrigerate overnight.
