Vibrant color and a medley of fruit in its filling make this pretty pie a standout. "This special dessert always brings compliments," says Mrs. Clifford Davis of Fort Smith, Arkansas. "The combination of cherries, pineapple, bananas and nuts appeals to most everyone."

Not a fan of this pie. The crust was too thick and the filling was too runny.

This pie was okay. The crust was a little too dry and the filling was a little too sweet. I think I would prefer a different recipe next time.

This pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still a good pie. The crust was flaky and the filling was thick and gooey. I would recommend using less sugar next time.
