Taiwanese Pineapple Cakes (Tarts) 鳳梨酥 | Angel Wong's Kitchen

Taiwanese Pineapple Cakes (sometimes called Pineapple Tarts) are one of Taiwan's best food souvenirs. The crust is similar to a buttery shortbread and the filling is just the right amount of sweetness with a bit of tart. My pineapple cake recipe is made with 100% pineapple filling. Served warm, these cakes are heavenly. Full Recipe & Ingredients on my blog: bit.ly/1ETP2Pn

Angel wong’s hey I tried out this recipe, one hour ago and I just got my pineapple 🍍 cake out of the oven and it turned out perfect and taste so so good. Unfortunately I didn’t have any metal molds I rolled it into a ball and pressed the middle . Still looks pretty decent and taste amazing. Thank you for the recipe.

[@roblyons2577]

I was glad to find a recipe here in english. I had not had these in 20 yrs., and don't live i.n a city where they can be bought. They were much easier to make than I thought they would be. In an effort to make them a little healthier, I used white whole wheat flour, and organic whey powder instead of powdered milk, as well as a fresh organic pineapple. These were awesome! Thanks so much for sharing.

[@angelwongskitchen]

Rob Lyons you're welcome! Glad you liked the recipe. :)

[@MechaGV]

wow. it's more simple than I thought it would be. I always wanted to know how they were made. thanks!

[@riccardofinotti1019]

[@pinayinarizona2654]

this is my ultimate favorite in taiwan.the moment i tried it in taiwan(1997)i keep wanting for more.when i worked in hongkong,i find some in their grocery store but its not as delicious as the one i tried in taiwan.

[@pinghc]

Thanks for setting up your channel, I'm searching for Taiwanese cooking vids in English to my international friends. Thanks so much!

[@njsarn]

Wow Angel, this recipe is great. I made pineapple 7" pie with your recipe. But I use fresh pineapple and reduced the liquid to 1/4 then put the diced pineapple back into the pot. Makes the filling SO much flavorful. I also puree the pineapple core and put them all in the pot. Thanks again for the video! 😋

[@ageingbeautifully7345]

I’ve visited Taiwan 5 times in 3 years, was due to visit again in June but due to Covid-19 in England I’ve had to cancel my flight :( I will make these this weekend to remind me of your beautiful island. That’s for the recipe, you make it look so easy 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@robertoneill2761]

[@angelwongskitchen]

Yay! Glad the pineapple cakes turned out well for you. ✌🏻🍍🍍🍍

[@veragunawan2960]

can i substitute milk powder with powdered sugar or more flour?

[@InvalidAuthorization]

I gotta try this recipe. I love these and have always had to buy them from the market. this would change the game for me.

[@ziure916]

Thank U for this recipe. Just ❤ these. 👍

[@zixiangyan528]

excellent recipe！

[@Reli-ut1pl]

What can I use instead of powder milk? Thank you😙

[@AndreHa]

Any ideas?

[@jevonclarke3638]

What if a use a muffin tin instead of a ring mole would the outcome be the same

[@elizabethle2237]

I just ate a whole box of these, definitely getting more

[@cecileberandoy1234]

thanks for sharing i've been looking for this recipe and now i found it...whoaaaaaaaa!!!

[@franshady1042]

Looks good.

[@miaboms8899]

I love this. That's very good explained.... And the pineapple is delicious :D

[@kkw218]

Thank you for your recipe. The steps are very easy to follow with a very clear instruction. I made it last night. It (the dough) came out a bit dry but the taste was awesome. How to fix the dryness of the shell? Thank you.

[@angelwongskitchen]

You're welcome! I like the dough a bit on the dry side, but you could always add a bit more butter.

[@ShadTheUseless]

Will try this recipe this week end =) Thanks

[@AngelaBueckertArt]

Got hooked on these when I went to Taiwan, now I try out various brands (especially the free samples). I hope Chia Te can open another location closer to the MRT :P.....but my wallet won't thank me, haha.

[@9thea14]

Thank you so much for sharing Angel! I've always wondered how to make these treats, and posting a video with all the details and steps really helped! I didn't have the square or diamond cookie cutters and used a mini muffin pan and they ended up turning out like little cupcakes, but it tasted great! I cut a whole pineapple instead of the canned ones, so I had filling left over. I realized that the taste was actually a lot stronger after placing it in the fridge overnight than when I used the filling after an hour. Thank you so so much! I've subscribed to your channel and I will be on the lookout for more of your delicious recipes! Keep up the great work!

[@angelwongskitchen]

Kristy Ng You're welcome! I'm glad you liked this recipe. The little pineapple cake-cupcake shapes actually sound pretty neat. I might try baking a few like that next time. :) Thanks for subscribing.

[@tobiaskaiser1018]

Hello Angle, could you please make a video showing how to make oolong tea, as well as green tea if possible. Thank you so much. All your videos are a pleasure to watch!

[@freemankuo3309]

Totally gonna try making this! Thanks~

[@lalalalaerica]

I've just subscribed and have been binge watching all your videos. Love your style Angel, keep up the good work!

[@diamondnightcore5638]

Omg they look so good 😋

[@gulmerton2394]

That looks delicious! I would imagine any fruit would suit?

[@shaunjeffrey_]

Hi Angel, why is your kitchen so nice?

[@alwaise4u]

if we try with different kinds of fruits, would it still be the same process? like strawberry, melon, cantaloupe, etc

[@horsechaser12]

Thank you for posting this vid! I love to bake and I can't wait to try this

[@auttar]

amazing I will try

[@mamacheung]

Hi Angel, great recipe! I always get dozens of pineapple cakes when I go to Taiwan. Thanks for sharing your recipe. :)

[@angelwongskitchen]

Mama Cheung You're welcome!

[@porchan5432]

Look very yummy. Thank you ❤️👍🏻

[@threekids184]

thanks for the recipe..

[@stevencung4442]

Awesome

[@aeoe5524]

Awesome !

[@jaesisikefu1320]

OMG Angel Wong's Kitchen I'll be honest, these look really nice! I've never tried any kind of Taiwanese sweet food before (aside from Bubble Tea, LOVE) so thank you so much for the recipe ^^ can't wait to get baking!

[@luxgene28]

Hi Angel, It looks fantastic! Could I have recipe? I would like to follow your video and make my own pineapple cake 😋

[@TheBeautyA]

Hi Angel, the pineapple cake looks great! I want to try your recipe, but I don't have milk powder, can I substitute it with something else or skip it? Grateful for answer 🙏

[@Infinitevoid3008]

Carnation Evaporated Milk is a milk powder you can use

[@alankepski]

I made it! And it's perfect, same taste as in Taiwan. Thank you for easy recipe!

[@garrett5758]

I’ve seen people used Maltose and incorporate it along with the pineapple on medium heat as well. My question is, how would you store maltose before and after used?

[@nitashah0]

I think its a good start recipe to try, I was feeling the cookie part needed something and I might have used too much dough to filling ratio.

[@o0Avalon0o]

Where can you get those bake-safe square frames?

[@bhaktiandaru6001]

Me : Mom! I need Oven Mom : why? Me : I want to Bake a Cake! Mom : We dont have enough space for oven in our kitchen -,- Me : NOOO! :) well, i rhink i will never bake this cake 😭

[@kprosshia4258]

U can do this without oven. Just watch cake without oven u can see the techniques there.

[@janetlau6275]

I recently found your channel and I love it. I looked through your videos to see if you made a video for chinese egg tart. And I didn't see one. Can you please make a video for Chinese egg tart? It's one of my favorite thing to eat. Thanks.

[@myohmyli]

i love the taro kind :D

[@jwsakata]

I use the fresh pineapple and lemon for this cookie, taste better

[@richardkim3629]

TAIWAN NO.1

[@tanpopo17]

hi! i tried your recipe yesterday and it was really good! everybody loves it including my mom-in-law who doesn't eat sweets, my friends also compliment my pineapple cake! thank you so much for the recipe! my concern is i wonder why my cake didn't turn brown. i baked it for 30mins or more and didn't turn brown color... anyway, it's really yummy! 😊

[@angelwongskitchen]

Hi! So glad you liked my pineapple cake recipe! To get the browned "grill marks" look, you need a textured baking sheet like I used in the video, otherwise you can bake the cakes a bit longer in the oven to try and brown the edges.

[@INTHEKITCHENWITHLYNNktk52]

Thank you for sharing! I saw you on the recommendation section!

[@BonusFry]

😁 🤩

[@xing6666]

I found that a 20oz can of pineapple slices, after chopped up, only yielded about 3/4 cup of pineapple.... which means I would need two cans. On the site it only calls for one can. Is that about right?

[@sailoriro8854]

show us how to make it with winter melon

[@sodalissmean6938]

what if i don't have powdered sugar??? can I skip it??

[@karunashetty4540]

very yummy..

[@simrangupta3355]

@AngelWong'sKitchen I do not have powdered milk on hand, and due to the pandemic, I cannot go out and buy some. So what would be a way to substitute the powdered milk for whole milk?

[@grandgala399]

Good job 👌

[@andrepeng9480]

First of all, thank you for this amazing recipe! The tarts are delicious! Second, how important do you think it is to fully evaporate the juices from the filling? I definitely ruined some dough balls by letting the filling leak through the dough. Once the filling gets mixed with the outside, that ball is done for, especially if there's still some juice left :x

[@angelwongskitchen]

+Andre Peng I would make sure to let any extra water evaporate from the filling otherwise as you mentioned, it will leak.

[@L33W41K41]

My mom uses fresh pineapples and obliterates it in the blender before boiling with sugar. Give is a nice, soft texture when you bite into the filling.

[@geraldinegoh1707]

Hi Angel, I tried your recipe today. The dough came out too soft and I added 1 extra cup of cakeflour. I could have put in wrong measurements of butter. You mentioned 1 stick. Does it mean 250 gms ? But, the results came out well and I love it.

[@angelwongskitchen]

Geraldine Goh I'm glad you loved the pineapple cakes! Actually 1 stick of butter = 8 tablespoons. I believe that's 113 gms. (sorry for the confusion!) You did the right thing by adding more cakeflour to adjust. :)

[@AndrisLelisTravelChanel]

Thanks Angel for recipe. Is it possible to make them without tins?

[@angelr9686]

Is it ok to use regular white sugar instead of powdered sugar?
