How to Make Pineapple Pumpkin Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie pan.
  3. Soften the gelatin: Sprinkle 1 envelope (1 tablespoon) of unflavored gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water in a small bowl. Let it stand for 5 minutes to bloom.
  4. Dissolve the gelatin: Add 1/2 cup of boiling water to the gelatin mixture. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved and clear.
  5. Blend the filling: In a blender, combine the dissolved gelatin, pumpkin puree (15 oz can), pineapple tidbits (20 oz can, drained), sweetened condensed milk (14 oz can), eggs (2 large), pumpkin pie spice (1 teaspoon), and vanilla extract (1 teaspoon). Blend until completely smooth and frothy.
  6. Assemble and bake: Pour the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust. Place the pie in a larger baking pan and pour enough hot water into the larger pan to come halfway up the sides of the pie plate (this creates a water bath for even baking).
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is just set. Let cool completely on a wire rack before chilling.
  8. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to fully set and the flavors to meld.
  9. Serve and enjoy! Garnish with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
