Ingredients
- 3/4 cup salted butter melted
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 20 Saltine Crackers crushed soda
- 1 cup of all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 cup sweetened shredded coconut
Pineapple Custard Filling
- 1 cup of water
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 millilitre can of crushed pineapple drained 398
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs beaten until light colored
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 °F.
- Combine the butter and sugar in the bowl attached to a stand mixer, using the paddle attachment. Mix until combined, then add in the soda crackers. Mix, then add in the flour baking soda and coconut. Mix until combined thoroughly.
- Press 2/3 into the bottom of an 8x8 baking pan, reserving 1/3 for the top.
- Combine the water and cornstarch in a medium sized heavy saucepan, whisk until dissolved. Add in the pineapple and sugar, then cook, stirring frequently, over medium-high heat until the liquid clears up. Temper the eggs by whisking in a tablespoon of the hot pineapple mixture then whisk into the pineapple mixture in the saucepan. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until thickened and creamy (this will not clear up, you are making a custard) and remove. Stir in the butter until melted in completely.
- Pour the sauce over the crust in the 9x9 pan, then cover with the remaining 1/3 of the crust mixture.
- Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until the crust is nicely browned.
- Remove and serve with a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream on top.
