Easy pineapple pie

Pineapple tart is a traditional dessert that has won over palates in many Latin American countries, each with its own version and name. Its origin dates back to European influence in the region, where combinations of tropical fruits with sweet doughs were very popular. In countries like Mexico and Colombia, this recipe is usually simply called "pineapple pie," while in others like Argentina or Chile, it is known as "ananá tart," using the fruit's aboriginal name. The pineapple, the main ingredient, is a tropical fruit native to South America, which provides a sweet and sour flavor ideal for enhancing any dessert.

This tart stands out for its simplicity and versatility, as it can be prepared with different types of bases and accompaniments. Its soft texture and the contrast between the sweetness of the dough and the acidity of the pineapple make it a perfect option to share at family gatherings or celebrations. Furthermore, its recipe is easy enough for even people with little kitchen experience to enjoy it.

How to Make Easy Pineapple Tart

To begin, if you wish, you can substitute 1/2 cup of white sugar for 1/2 cup of packed brown sugar to give it a deeper flavor.

Drain the pineapple very well, reserving the juice for other uses, such as drinks or sauces.

Beat the butter and sugar together until smooth and fluffy; this will ensure a creamy texture in the base.

Add the eggs and use a wire whisk to mix completely, integrating the ingredients well.

Incorporate the vanilla extract and the drained pineapple, mixing evenly with the preparation.

Mix well to obtain a homogeneous batter ready for baking.

Pour the mixture into a 9-inch unbaked pie crust and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 45 minutes.

Let it cool for a few minutes before cutting, or serve it cold to fully enjoy its refreshing flavor.
