Why You’ll Love My Recipe

This fluffy, gooey, and sweet pie is easy to make and perfect for a cool summer treat! Even better for those hot summer days, you barely need to use any heat for this recipe and the pie will keep well in your fridge for days.

Why not learn how to make your very own Graham Cracker Crust for this recipe? If you’re itching for a more classic pie, try an old-fashioned Blueberry Pie. Or check out this Lemon Chess Pie for a twist on an old standard.

Karlynn’s Recipe Notes

  • Skill Level: Very easy.
  • Total Time: Under 30 minutes to mix and assemble.
  • Variations: Try sprinkling some shredded coconut (sweetened or unsweetened) on top of this pie to boost the tropical flavour of the pineapple. Maybe try whipping some cream cheese into the filling to make this taste more like a cheesecake? If you’re making your own crust, why not test this recipe out in a 9″x9″ cake pan instead?
  • Tools Needed: You’ll need a standard 9″ pie plate, a medium pot, and a whisk or hand mixer.

What You’ll Need For Ingredients

Pineapple: Crushed pineapple will mix into the filling most easily, but if you prefer bigger chunks of pineapple go right ahead. Just make sure to thoroughly drain and squeeze all of the excess moisture out of whatever pineapple you use.

Marshmallows: Big, small, multicoloured, whatever you’ve got. You’re going to melt them down for the filling anyway. You can always sprinkle some on top of the pie as a garnish too.

Whipping Cream: If you’d rather not have to fuss with whipping your own cream, premade whipped topping or whipped cream in a can would be fine too.

How To Make Marshmallow Pineapple Pie

This is a brief overview of the recipe. The full list of ingredients and step-by-step instructions are in the recipe card below.

  1. Put milk and marshmallows in a medium saucepan at low-medium heat. Stir slowly until marshmallows are fully melted. Add salt. Let the mixture cool.
  2. Stir the drained pineapple into the cooled marshmallow mixture.
  3. Fold in the whipped cream. Pour the mixture into a prebaked and cooled crust.
  4. Refrigerate until you’re ready to eat it. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream.

Karlynn’s Tips and Tricks for Making Marshmallow Pineapple Pie

Crust: You don’t have to use a store bought graham cracker pie crust if you don’t want to. Making your own graham cracker crust is easy. Or try a whole different type of crust, like this Betty Crocker Pie Crust or even a chocolate pie crust.

Pineapple: If you like pineapple tidbits or even bigger chunks, go for it! Just be sure to really drain and squeeze whatever pineapple you use so that you don’t end up with excess liquid in your pie.

Whipped Cream: Don’t overwhip your whipping cream! You want it just whipped enough to hold it’s shape. If you’re feeling adventurous, try topping this pie with Lemon Whipped Cream or Strawberry Whipped Cream.

Storage Instructions

Fridge: Store this pie in the fridge since it’s full of dairy. It tends to keep fairly well for several days.
