Ingredients
  

For the Crust:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
For the Filling:
  • 1 can 15 oz crushed pineapple, well-drained
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For Dusting:
  • Powdered sugar

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Mix flour and sugar, then cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake for 15 minutes until lightly golden.
  2. Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine drained pineapple, sour cream, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
  3. Assemble and Bake: Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust and return to the oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the filling is set. Cool completely.
  4. Serve: Dust with powdered sugar before cutting into bars.

Notes

  • Ensure the pineapple is thoroughly drained to prevent a soggy crust.
  • For a gluten-free version, use a suitable gluten-free flour blend instead of all-purpose flour.
