Pineapple Pie for Pi Day

by on ‎03-09-2015 03:42 PM

Pi Day is Saturday, March 14. I’m not a math whiz, but there’s pie involved, so count me in! I have a great recipe for Pineapple Pie, which is a bonus on Pi Day because both words of the recipe title start with Pi. Even better, check out this equation: Easy Ingredients + No Measuring + No Cutting + No Baking = Perfect Pie. Also, my kids are older so this is a good excuse to engage them in something they’d call fairly tolerable fun. My son, age 12, dumped in the pineapple. He wouldn’t let me include his face in the picture because apparently he’s too cool in the witness protection program. My daughter, age 15, sent moral support from her bedroom where I’m sure she was texting her friends doing math homework. This recipe makes two pies. So you can save the second for Easter which automatically makes you a mathematical genius.


Enjoy!
