Ingredients
Shortbread Crust:
- 1 ½ cups flour gluten-free
- 10 Tbsp. butter melted
- ⅓ cup sugar
- ½ tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- ¼ tsp. salt
Pineapple Coconut Filling
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 Tbsp. butter melted
- 2 cups pineapple finely diced
- ¾ cup shredded coconut divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Combine all of the shortbread crust ingredients in a large bowl. Using a pastry cutter, mix the ingredients together until a coarse crumb forms.
- Spray an 8x8-inch square baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Press mixture into dish and make sure it is all packed down.
- Bake crust in preheated oven for 15 minutes.
- While the crust is baking, combine the remaining sugar, egg, and butter in the same large bowl. Beat with a mixer on medium speed for 1 minute.
- Add diced pineapple and ½ cup of shredded coconut. Mix by hand until ingredients are just combined.
- Pour the pineapple-coconut layer over the pre-baked crust and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle remaining ¼ cup shredded coconut over the top.
- Bake in oven for 35-40 minutes or until the edges begin to brown and the middle no longer jiggles.
- Let bars cool to room temperature before cutting in. Enjoy!
Notes
- Learn How to Cut a Pineapple.
- To Serve: Let the bars cool COMPLETELY before serving. The middle takes a while to set. If you cut in too soon you'll end up with a crumbly crust and gooey middle.
- To Store: Keep the bars for up to three to four days at room temperature.
- To Freeze: You can also keep these in the freezer for up to three to four months. Tightly wrap them before freezing.
