Pineapple tart, also known as kue nastar in Indonesia, kueh tae or kuih tair in Malaysia, kuih tat nanas in Brunei, and kuih tat nanas in Singapore, is a small, bite-sized tart that is typically found throughout different countries of Southeast Asia.

It's possible that the pineapple tart was created in the sixteenth century. Around this period, Portuguese traders introduced the pineapple, a South American fruit, to Asia and the Malay Peninsula.

The pastry has a creamy, buttery, supple, and melt-in-your-mouth quality since it is mostly made of butter and egg yolk with a small amount of maize starch. A mixture of sugar and spices, typically cinnamon, star anise, and cloves, are caramelised to create the pineapple jam, which is typically made by slowly reducing fresh pineapple that has been grated.
