Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Reserve 1 cup of this mixture for the topping and press the remaining crust mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  4. Bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, flour, sugar, salt, sour cream, and crushed pineapple until smooth.
  6. Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust and spread evenly.
  7. Sprinkle the reserved crust mixture over the filling to create a crumbly topping.
  8. Bake for 60 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden.
  9. Let the bars cool for 10-15 minutes.
  10. Whisk powdered sugar and coconut extract in a bowl until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bars.
  11. Slice into squares and serve!

Notes

Drain the pineapple thoroughly: Excess liquid can make the bars soggy.
Use fresh butter: It enhances the crumbly texture and flavor.
Chill before slicing: For cleaner cuts, refrigerate the bars for 15-20 minutes after cooling.
