Prepare the pineapple by peeling, coring, and chopping it into small pieces.

Cook the pineapple in a saucepan over medium heat until soft, about 10 minutes.

Add sugar and lemon juice to the cooked pineapple and simmer for another 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and let the filling cool completely.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

In another bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk until a dough forms.

Roll out half of the dough and place it in a tart pan, pressing it into the edges.

Spread the cooled pineapple filling evenly over the crust.

Roll out the remaining dough and cut it into strips to create a lattice pattern over the filling.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.

Allow the tart to cool before dusting with powdered sugar and serving.
