Pineapples Tarts 3

Finally done a batch of pineapple tarts last night! Every year I will try out different pineapple tarts recipe to test out except last year I've so busy with my confinement that I missed making that :) Still feeling lazy to make the jam by scratch I've opt to use 'Bake King' pineapple jam which is most recommended by people whom have used it. It taste not too sweet and have some bites of pineapples fibre in it, but I still prefer homemade jam which is more sourish ^-^
This pastry recipe is extracted from Ooi Lin's recipe book which my friend recommended to me. It has the melt in the mouth texture which I like ;)
