Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) carton nonfat yogurt, no gelatin added
  • 1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple, packed in own juice
  • 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
  • 1 medium banana, diced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons flaked coconut, toasted
  • 1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crusts (I use Graham-Cracker Crust (Microwave).)

Directions

  1. 1
    The day before, place in yogurt in a strainer lined with cheesecloth or a yogurt strainer and place in the refrigerator; allowing to drain for 24 hours.
  2. 2
    Making sure to reserve the liquid, drain the pineapple in a stainer, pressing against sides to remove liquid.
  3. 3
    Soften the gelatin in 1/4 cup of the pineapple juice for 5 minutes; heat 1/2 cup of the remaining juice; add softened gelatin and stir to dissolve, cool slightly.
  4. 4
    Sprinkle the banana with lemon juice and toss to coat; place the coconut in a dry skillet and over medium heat toast lightly.
  5. 5
    Place the yogurt cheese in a medium-sized bowl, gently stir in sugar with a fork or wire whisk; gradually add the gelatin mixture and continue stirring until well blended.
  6. 6
    Fold in the drained pineapple, bananas and toasted coconut.
  7. 7
    Pour the mixture into a 9-inch prepared graham cracker crust, chill several hours or until set.
