PINEAPPLE COCONUT PIE

Pineapple Coconut Pie image

MY DAUGHTER introduced me to several recipes that are low in sugar after I found out I have diabetes. This was one of them, and it's become one of my favorite desserts. I enjoy making this pie and baking other treats for my daughters, 10 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren. -Elsie Wilson, Freeman, Missouri
