PINEAPPLE RICOTTA PIE- ITALIAN STYLE
This is another Italian Easter favorite. Nice, but not too sweet. I buy two frozen Pie crusts and use one for the pie and the other I remove and flatten out, to cut into strips and make lattice pattern on top. Delicious! Enjoy!

- Brush egg/milk mixture over top of pie.
- Bake in 425°F oven for 15 minutes.
- After 15 minutes, turn heat down to 375°F and cook for 20-25 minutes more. You want the top to be a nice golden brown and the mixture will be slightly "jiggly".

- Enjoy!
RICOTTA PIE WITH PINEAPPLE TOPPING
Taken from the "Sopranos Cookbook" Plan ahead this pie needs to chill for a minimum of 3 hours before serving. This pie is nothing short of amazing! The pineapple topping can be doubled and used for topping cheesecakes as well.

FRESH PINEAPPLE RICOTTA PIE
A creamy pineapple pie in an almond cookie crust. Cook time does not include freezer time. I used drained, canned pineapple packed in light syrup rather than fresh. Can't wait to try it again as written. Recipe credit - Family Circle July 12, 2005 issue. I classified this as both Italian & Hawaiian since it seems to cross cultural lines. How about Haw-talian? ;-)

CARM'S PINEAPPLE RICOTTA PIE
I lost the specific origin of this recipe. It was inspired by The Sopranos and Carmela's strategically delivered ricotta pie. This pie is creamy and dense . . . delish!
