Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and salt.
Melt the coconut oil and add it to the dry ingredients along with the honey and the egg. Mix until a dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into a 9-inch tart pan. Use your fingers to smooth the surface and ensure it covers the bottom and sides of the pan.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until it's lightly golden. Remove from oven and let it cool slightly.
Meanwhile, cut the pineapple into small chunks if using fresh. If using canned, ensure it is well-drained.
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the pineapple, tapioca starch, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon.
Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and the pineapple is well-coated and softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Pour the pineapple mixture onto the pre-baked tart crust, spreading evenly.
Bake the assembled tart in the oven for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the pineapple topping is bubbly and golden.
Remove from oven and allow the tart to cool completely before serving. This will help the filling set more.
Serve at room temperature or chilled for a refreshing treat.
