Ingredients
Tart crust
Dry Ingredients:
155g Cake/Top Flour
15g Icing Sugar
20g Custard Powder
20g Parmesan Cheese finely grated
A pinch of salt
100g Butter, cold and unsalted
Wet Ingredients:
1 Egg Yolk, beaten
2 tsp Cold Water/Milk
Egg wash:
1 Egg Yolk, beaten
1 tsp Milk
¼ tsp Oil
Filling:
225g Pineapple Jam, ready-made
Method
- Sieve all the Dry ingredients, except the butter, into a cold mixing bowl.
- Add the cold butter and gently rub the butter onto the flour until the texture become like fine breadcrumbs. Take care not to overwork the dough.
- Add the egg yolk and gently knead to form the dough. To bind the dough, add a little cold water/ milk (bit by bit) until you get the desired texture.
- Divide the dough into 2 portions. Wrap in 2 cling-wrap batches and chill for at least 30 min till they become firm.
- Meanwhile, prepare the pineapple jam. Taking out the required amount from the ready-made pack, roll the pineapple jam into balls of 7g each.
- Preheat the airfryer at 145 degrees for 5 min.
- By now, the dough should be firm enough and ready. Roll into balls of 10g each.
- Roll each ball out flat and wrap the pineapple jam balls inside.
- Brush a layer of egg wash and top it off with some parmesan cheese.
- Bake the pineapple tarts at 145 degrees for 14 min. If you like it more golden-brown, continue for another 2 to 3 min.
- Cool the pineapple tarts well before storing in an airtight container. Enjoy!
