Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, combine the cherry pie filling, pineapple (with juice), sugar, cornstarch, and red food coloring if using.
  2. Mix the ingredients well to ensure the cornstarch is evenly distributed.
  3. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
  4. Once boiling, cook and stir for 2 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.
  5. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
  6. Gently fold the sliced bananas and chopped pecans or walnuts into the cooled fruit mixture.
  7. Pour the filling evenly into the two baked pastry shells.
  8. Cover the pies loosely and refrigerate for 2-3 hours to set.
  9. Just before serving, garnish each pie with a dollop of whipped cream.

Note

For best results, use ripe but firm bananas to prevent them from becoming too mushy.

You can substitute the pecans with walnuts, almonds, or omit them entirely for a nut-free version.

Store any leftovers in the refrigerator covered tightly for up to 3 days. The pie is best served cold.

If you prefer a deeper color, feel free to add the red food coloring, but it is optional and does not affect the flavor.

Ensure the fruit mixture is completely cool before adding the bananas to help maintain their shape.
