For a deeper coconut flavor, lightly toast the flaked coconut in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown before adding it to the filling. Watch carefully, as it burns easily! Make sure the crushed pineapple is well-drained to prevent a soggy pie. You can press it gently with paper towels to remove excess moisture. A pinch of salt can enhance the sweetness of the pie. If you don't have time to make your own pie crust, a store-bought crust works perfectly fine. For an extra touch, sprinkle some toasted coconut flakes on top of the cooled pie before serving.
