Here’s a simple strawberry jam tart recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 sheet of frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 3/4 cup strawberry jam
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 220°c.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet into a rectangle about 1/8 inch thick.
- Cut the pastry into 6 equal squares and transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Using a sharp knife, score a 1/2-inch border around the edge of each pastry square, being careful not to cut all the way through.
- Prick the inside of each square with a fork to prevent it from puffing up too much during baking.
- Spoon about 2 tablespoons of strawberry jam into the center of each pastry square, spreading it out but leaving the border empty.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash.
- Brush the edges of each pastry square with the egg wash.
- Bake the tarts in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
Let the tarts cool for a few minutes before serving.
Enjoy your delicious and easy strawberry jam tarts!
