2 tablespoons butter or stick margarine, melted
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
Cooking spray
Filling:
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups 1% low-fat milk
1 (15 1/4-ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice, drained

Preheat oven to 350u00b0.

To prepare crust, combine first 3 ingredients; toss with a fork until moist. Press into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350u00b0 for 8 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

To prepare filling, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and egg in a medium bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Heat milk over medium-high heat in a medium, heavy saucepan to 180u00b0 or until tiny bubbles form around edge (do not boil). Gradually add hot milk to sugar mixture, stirring constantly with a whisk. Return milk mixture to pan. Cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly (about 3 minutes), stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low, and cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in pineapple, 1/4 cup coconut, and ginger. Place pan in a large ice-filled bowl for 15 minutes or until egg mixture is chilled; stir occasionally.
