Recipe FAQS

You can store pineapple pie in the fridge for up to 5 days before decorating, or 3 days after decorations have been added.
Expert Tips

- If you have time, refrigerate the pie for more than 2 hours. The longer it stays in the refrigerator, the more it will set.

Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
You can freeze this pie for later...or enjoy it frozen! Wrap it well in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then freeze for up to 3 months. To serve it frozen, let it thaw for about 10 minutes at room temperature, then cut and serve.

Thanks for the tip Debi. This is one of my favorite desserts . I love pineapple.
This is one of my favorites. I have trouble getting the filling to congeal.Do you have any tips that would solve this problem?
Hi Marsha! It's important to use full fat cream cheese. Be careful when adding pineapple juice because too much can make it jiggly.
