THE JOHNNY CASH PINEAPPLE PIE

THIS...my darlings,
is a SOUTHERN CLASSIC!
This pie comes with  HISTORY....
JOHNNY Cash told many about a Pineapple Pie
his mother made which was his all time favorite!
It's made with CRUSHED pineapple, sugar, butter, eggs and vanilla!
The South loves tradition like sweet tea and chicken and dumplings...
And of course, Mom's cooking....but, I added a delicious
surprise when making this southern classic..... 



After 50 minutes., the pie had a lovely golden color and the filling
was set perfectly...a delightful taste of summer if you ask me.....



How pretty is this pie?



You can also serve this warm or cold with
sweetened whipped cream......



This is my surprise addition.....
rather than using crushed pineapple, I chose to substitute..
this delightful Pineapple fruit filling......



It came out perfectly...five star rating by the boys......


Thank you Johnny Cash for sharing your Mom's best Pineapple Pie recipe..
and for all the good memories we have of your songs.....

  1. That pie sure looks scrumptious. I'm not really a pineapple fan, but I think your substitute of the pinapple fruit filling sounds wonderful. When you mentioned sweet tea, I smiled, because when Nel lived in Georgia for a couple years, she loved the sweet tea. ; )

    I hope the June days are kind to you, Betsy.

    **I was also wondering, are your Header photos of your home, or just photos and ideas you come across? They are always so charming. Oh my, that pecan salad looks amazing. I love pecans and put them in my oatmeal sometimes. ; )
