Ingredients
Base
2 blocks of butter
4 cups of self raising flour
4 eggs
1 cup sugar
Custard
Filling
3 crushed pineapples
You can use anything for toppings: whipped cream with peanuts is very common.
Steps
In a large bowl mix butter with sugar.
Add eggs one by one and mix.
Add flour and mix.
Knead with hands.
In a large aluminium tray, spread the pastry and make gentle holes with a fork.
In a pot, boil pineapple and add your pre-made custard to it. Stir until thickens.
Cook the pastry in the oven until golden brown. Let it cool and then add the custard.
Top with whipped cream and any other toppings you'd like - some people add crushed nuts or sliced fruit.
