Ingredients

• 250 grams All-purpose flour
• 125 grams Unsalted butter
• 50 grams Granulated sugar
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 large Egg yolk
• 2 tablespoons Cold water
• 1 medium Fresh pineapple
• 50 grams Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 3

Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture.

Step 4

Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs.

Step 5

Add the egg yolk and cold water to the mixture, mixing just until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 7

While the dough chills, prepare the pineapple filling. Peel, core, and finely chop the fresh pineapple.

Step 8

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the chopped pineapple, brown sugar, and cornstarch.

Step 9

Cook the pineapple mixture, stirring frequently, until it thickens and the pineapple softens, about 10 minutes.

Step 10

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the filling to cool.

Step 11

After refrigerating, roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch tart pan. Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan.

Step 12

Prick the base of the dough with a fork to prevent bubbling.

Step 13

Bake the tart crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes until it lightly golden.

Step 14

Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool slightly before filling.

Step 15

Pour the cooled pineapple filling into the baked tart crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 16

Return the filled tart to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the filling sets.

Step 17

Allow the tart to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before serving.

Step 18

Slice and serve the nut-free pineapple tart as a delightful dessert or snack.
