             6 cans (439g) crushed pineapples                    For the crust:
             2 ¼ c white sugar                                   6 ¾ c all purpose flour, sifted

             ¾ cup brown sugar                                   6 tbsp sugar
             3 c cornstarch dissolved in ¾ c water               1 tbsp cinnamon

             1 c butter                                          1 c butter
             1 ½ tbsp cinnamon                                   1 c vegetable shortening

             ¼ tsp all spice                                     18 tbsp cold water
             ¼ tsp nutmeg
                                                                 1 tbsp vinegar
                                                                 3 egg whites





             Combine flour and salt in a bowl. Cut in shortening and butter using
             two knives or a pastry cutter. Mix cinnamon, vinegar and water.

             Slowly add the liquid to the flour, mixing until dough can be handled.

             Divide the dough into 2 parts, with one part slightly bigger than the

             other. Divide the bigger part into 3. Roll each dough to about 2 inches
             larger than a 16-inch pie plate. Fit the dough into a pie plate, letting
             sides hang.


             Divide the smaller dough into 3, roll out for the crust. Set aside.

             Combine filling ingredients in a thick saucepan. Cook while stirring
             constantly until thickened. Cool, then pour into prepared crust. Cover

             pie with top crust.

             Flute or crimp the edges together to seal. Brush with egg whites.

             Bake at 350°F for 40-50 minutes.
