Make the Pie Filling:

In a medium saucepan, use a hand-held electric mixer to cream together sugar, butter, and egg yolks.
Blend in cornstarch and vanilla extract until smooth.
Add the water and crushed pineapple (with its juice), then mix again to combine.
Transfer the saucepan to the stove and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens.
Pour the thickened filling into a pre-baked 9-inch pie crust.

Make the Meringue:

In a clean bowl, whip egg whites until foamy.
Gradually add the remaining sugar and continue to whip until soft peaks form and the meringue is smooth and glossy.

Assemble and Bake the Pie:

Spread the meringue evenly over the cooled pie filling.
Bake the pie in a preheated oven at 400°F for a few minutes, just until the meringue is lightly browned.

Store:

Allow the pie to cool, then refrigerate before serving. Enjoy!
