   In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Mix well.

3. 3

   Add the cubed cold butter to the flour mixture and rub in with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

4. 4

   Stir in the egg yolk and mix until a dough forms. If too crumbly, add a little cold water until it holds together.

5. 5

   Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 15 minutes.

6. 6

   Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface and cut into circles to fit your tart molds. Press the dough into the molds.

7. 7

   Fill each tart shell with pineapple jam, smoothing the top.

   For the egg wash, whisk the egg yolk with milk and brush the edges of the tart shells. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
