Banana Pie
Categories:
cakes/desserts
6 cups sliced bananas
3/4 cup pineapple juice
pastry for 2 crust pie
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon flour
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
Soak bananas in pineapple juice for 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a 9 inch pie plate with pastry. Drain bananas, saving 3 tablespoons of the juice. Place bananas in pie shell. Combine sugar, flour and cinnamon; sprinkle over bananas. Sprinkle with the 3 tablespoons of pineapple juice. Dot with butter, cover with top crust. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes or until crust is browned.
Note: Use a deep dish pie crust for bottom and a regular pie crust for the top. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Oops: I'm told it's good cold too. I've even been told that it was apple pie instead of banana. And that it tasted like peach cobbler too.
