Rhubarb Pineapple Pie....different and Delicious!

Per some reviewers' suggestions, I cut back to less than 1 cup of sugar; might even go down to 3/4 cup next time, since I think most pies have too much sugar in them, impairing one's ability to taste the fruit. This pie had really wonderful flavor -- several people commented that they liked it better than strawberry-rhubarb pie, and I think I would agree!

This pie is awesome!! A little too sweet for my taste. When i make it again (and again) I'm gunna cut down on the sugar a bit.

I've got a TON of rhubarb and always looking for new ways to use it. This was tasty and different. Sweet, but still tangy. Thanks for sharing.

What a great pie, nice change from the norm. I used fresh rhubarb from my garden and fresh pineapple, crushed and drained. This was so simple and results were delicious. Everyone loved it, kids and all, nice spring/summer pie.

Made this with a phyllo dough top crust and no bottom crust. It was a tad overly tart but I used only 1 cup of sugar. Great combo of fruits,

DD made this pie for us and it's fabulous! When she took her first taste she immediately thought "sunshine." I agree - it's such a bright flavor, and a perfect blend of the the rhubarb and pineapple.

Oh my god--this just may become my favorite dessert! I grew up with a lot of rhubarb recipes and already love the stuff, but the pineapple (which I also love) does such a terrific job of balancing the tartness of rhubarb that I think anyone would enjoy this. It was very simple to make, although next time I may make more filling so that my pie is taller. Hot or cold, with ice cream or without, I absolutely loved this pie. I plan to make it again this next week--except I'll be doubling the recipe. :-) It's just outstanding--thanks for sharing, Leslie!!

I had to try this - sounded very interesting & tasty. Brought it to work and my fellow teachers had a taste test at lunch - 5s all around! Many said they liked it better than ordinary strawberry rhubarb! Will make this again!

Leslie, this was an awesome tasting pie! I added 2 well drained (8 ounce) cans of crushed pineapple, plus when I added the rhubarb, my 3 (1 cups) of rhubarb, were (slightly heaping) 1 cups each. I also topped the pie crust with 1 tsp. of the granulated sugar (instead of the 1/2 tsp.) I baked the pie for 55 minutes, and lined the outer crust w/foil before baking, then I removed the foil 20 minutes before the pie was done. Leslie, thanx for the wonderful pie recipe. I'll definitely be making this pie several times during the Summer months.

I've never had the combination of rhubarb and pineapple in a pie. It is awesome. I love this pie, because it is easy to make, made fast and such a sweet treat. I've used Martha Stewarts Foolproof Pie Crust for the pie crust, which I prepare in advance and it works great. The addition of flour made the filling a little more sticky. I cut the rhubarb and pinapple into similar sized pieces. After 60 minutes of baking the rhubarb was done, but still just that little firm as I loved it. A wonderful pie and a gorgeous dessert or afternoon treat.

This was really good. Unfortunately, I couldn’t even get my picky DH to try it…I thought he might, because he likes pineapple, but he doesn’t like rhubarb…Oh well, all the more for me!
