Cooking Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, cornstarch, flour, and salt until well combined.

Slowly incorporate the melted butter into the mixture, stirring until smooth.

Gently fold in the chopped pecans, drained crushed pineapple, and shredded coconut until evenly distributed.

Place the pie crust into a baking dish and pour the pecan mixture into the crust, spreading it evenly.

Crimp the edges of the pie crust with a fork or your fingers for a decorative finish.

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 55 minutes. After that, cover the pie with aluminum foil and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the center is just set.

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool before serving.

For the best results when making Island Pecan Pie, consider toasting the pecans and coconut before adding them to the filling to enhance their flavors. This pie is a delightful harmony of textures and flavors that will elevate your dessert experience.

If you want to add a little extra flair, serve the pie with homemade whipped cream or a sprinkle of toasted coconut on top.

Always keep an eye on the pie as it bakes to avoid overcooking, as this can lead to cracks in the filling.

Enjoy your baking!
