I came up with this base off of a recipe I found on Myrecipes.com. I was wanting a REALLY tropical tasting pie. This is what I ended up with. It's the best of both worlds. I served it at a family gathering and those who prefer coconut cream pie to banana cream pie really enjoyed the combination.

Ingredients

1 (9-inch) pie crust, baked
1 (8 1/4-ounce) can crushed pineapple, juice reserved
2-3 bananas, soaked in pineapple juice
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cups 1% low-fat milk
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons cream of coconut (such as coco lopez)
1/4 teaspoon coconut extract
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups frozen fat-free whipped topping, thawed
1/4 cup flaked sweetened coconut, toasted

Steps:

1. Layer banana slices on crust. Spoon pineapple onto the banana layer.
2. Combine 3/4 cup sugar, cornstarch, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a saucepan, and stir in milk. Bring to a boil; cook for 1 minute, stirring with a whisk.
3. Gradually add about 1/3 cup hot custard to beaten eggs; stir constantly with a whisk. Return egg mixture to pan. Cook for 2 minutes or until thick, stirring constantly.
4. Remove mixture from heat; stir in cream of coconut and extracts.
5. Spoon mixture into the prepared crust. Cover surface of filling with plastic wrap; chill until set (about 2 hours).
6. Remove plastic wrap, and spread whipped topping evenly over filling. Sprinkle with coconut.

Tips:

Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your pie will be.
Don't overcook the bananas. You want them to be soft, but not mushy.
Use fresh pineapple. Fresh pineapple has a much better flavor than canned pineapple.
Use a good quality vanilla extract. A good vanilla extract will add a rich, deep flavor to your pie.
Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set.

Conclusion:

This pineapple banana cream pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy filling, sweet pineapple, and caramelized bananas, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
