When serving individuals with dairy, gluten or soy allergies, it can be difficult to find a dish that is both tasty and flavorful. This recipe provides the perfect dessert for serving guests who adhere to restricted diets.

The recipe provides instructions for making a delicious pineapple pie out of just a few staple ingredients. The pie crust is made from almond flour, which makes it completely gluten-free.
