Ingredients
- ½ cup butter (very soft or melted)
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup pineapple tidbits in 100% juice (drained)
- 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
Steps
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the crust ingredients and press the mixture into the bottom of a well-greased or parchment lined 10” square pan. Doubling this recipe will fill a 9x13 pan.
-
Bake for 12 minutes (or 15 minutes for a doubled recipe). Remove from the oven and let the crust cool for 10 minutes while preparing the filling.
-
Place the pineapple and 1 cup of shredded coconut in a bowl. Sprinkle with flour, brown sugar and salt. Stir to coat. Mix together the eggs, vanilla and lime and stir into the pineapple mixture.
-
Pour the filling over the crust and top with the remaining coconut. Bake for 25-27 minutes, until the coconut turns golden brown. Let cool completely before slicing. Enjoy!
