Method

Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Tart Crust

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.

  2. 2

    Add Butter

    Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. 3

    Add Egg Yolks

    In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolk and vanilla extract. Add this mixture to the flour and butter mixture, combining until it forms a dough.

  4. 4

    Chill the Dough

    Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Filling Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare Pineapple Filling

    In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped fresh pineapple, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and ground cinnamon. Mix well.

  2. 6

    Cook Filling

    Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble. Once thick, remove from heat and stir in the butter until melted.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 7

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 8

    Roll Out Crust

    On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a circle large enough to fit your tart pan. Transfer the dough to the tart pan, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.

  3. 9

    Add Filling

    Pour the pineapple filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly.

  4. 10

    Bake the Tart

    Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.

  5. 11

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the tart to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your delicious pineapple tart!
