My gluten-free pineapple bars are a tropical twist on the classic lemon bar, bursting with bright, tangy flavor and a subtle kick of heat. Made with a buttery shortbread crust enhanced by crushed gluten-free graham crackers and a sweet pineapple habanero jam from Profanity Jams. Perfect for summer gatherings, backyard barbecues, or anytime you’re craving a fruity, gluten-free dessert with a little attitude!

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F and line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  2. In a medium bowl, melt the butter and stir in the sugar and salt. Add the crushed gluten-free graham crackers and gluten-free flour, mixing until a thick dough forms.
  3. Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish and bake for 20–22 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  4. Remove from the oven and immediately use a fork to gently poke holes all over the crust — this helps the filling adhere.
  5. While the crust is baking, prepare the filling: In a large bowl, sift together the sugar and flour. Whisk in the eggs, pineapple juice, pineapple habanero jam, and lime zest until smooth and well combined.
  6. Pour the filling over the warm crust and return to the oven. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the center is set and no longer jiggles.
  7. Let the bars cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours (the longer, the better for clean slices).
  8. When ready to serve, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Dust with confectioners' sugar, cut into squares, and enjoy!
