Tips:
- For the crust, use a combination of graham cracker crumbs and oat flour to create a gluten-free and diabetic-friendly base.
- When making the pineapple filling, use fresh pineapple for the best flavor and texture. If using canned pineapple, be sure to drain it well and pat it dry before using.
- To reduce the sugar content in the filling, use a sugar substitute like stevia or erythritol. You can also use a combination of sugar and sugar substitute to achieve the desired sweetness.
- For a richer filling, use a combination of cream cheese and Greek yogurt. This will also help to reduce the sugar and fat content of the pie.
- When making the topping, use a combination of chopped nuts and sugar-free chocolate chips for a crunchy and flavorful topping.
- To make the pie ahead of time, bake it and let it cool completely. Then, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
