Pineapple Tarts

Bake pineapple tarts today.

Ok I cheat I use ready made pineapple paste for my pineapple tarts.

 

Freshly out from the oven.

 

Ingredients

Pastry:

300g plain flour

¼ + ¼ tsp salt

4 tbsp corn flour

200g butter or margarine

3 tbsp icing sugar (Omit if u wants to, as ready-make paste are usually too sweet)

2 egg yolk

 

1 Packet of ready-made pineapple paste (roll into small balls)

 

Method Pastry:

Sieve flour, corn flour, salt and icing sugar into a mixing bowl.

Rub in margarine or butter and add egg yolk to form a dough.

Roll pastry into 0.5cm thickness and stamp out with a cutter.

Press about 0.25cm deep in the center. Add one teaspoon of filling.

If you like, you can decorate the tart with two strips of pastry placed to make a cross on the top.

* Bake in a preheated oven at 150ºC for 28 - 30 minutes or till lightly brown.

 

* First bake the pastry for 12 minutes then place ready roll pineapple filling on top the pastry and bake another 16 minutes more. This is to pervert over-bake the filling.

 

I'm using cookie cutter for the tart and I got approximately 100 pieces of pineapple tarts.
