Grilled Pina Colada Pie

Ingredients

  • 1 box Pillsbury Pie Crust 2 crusts
  • 1 fresh pineapple
  • 1 package instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 1/2 cups milk slightly less than package requires
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 tablespoon rum or 1/4 teaspoon rum extract for non alcoholic substitution

egg wash

  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

  • Take pie dough out of fridge and place it on the counter so you can roll it out nicely after about 15 minutes.
  • Place one pie crust in an eight inch cast iron skillet.
  • Mix pudding with milk and let set up for 5 minutes.
  • Cut the pineapple into chunks and mix into pudding after the pudding has set.
  • Stir in coconut.
  • Place the pineapple and pudding mix into pie crust.
  • Mix egg with water and brush on edges of pie crust, so it browns nicely.
  • Put cast iron skillet on preheated grill at 450 ยบ
  • Cook for 10-14 minutes or until the crust is golden and firm.
  • Remove from grill and allow to cool a few minutes and then serve.
  • Cut pie crust into 4 6" circles (using a bowl as a guide helps)
  • Place 1/4 cup filling onto one half of each pie crust.
  • Fold over other half and put some egg wash on the edge and crimp to seal the hand pies with a fork.
  • Be careful not to over fill the hand pies or the filling will come out the edges.
  • Lightly oiling the pie crust will help it from sticking to the grill.
  • Place hand pie on grill for 8 minutes and then turn over and cook other side a few minutes more until crust is golden and cooked.
