For the dough

  • 250 grams of flour
  • 125 grams of unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 lemon or orange, zest
  •  some milk

  • 1/2 cup kiwi cut into pieces
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped pineapple
  • 1/2 cup grapes

Implementation

For the dough

  1. Add the sifted flour to the bowl of the mixer, the sugar and butter together with a pinch of salt and mix until a crumbly dough resembles crumbs.
  2. Alternatively, work the ingredients by hand, kneading them until you reach the desired result. Add the egg and the zest to the crumbs and stir a little more, to combine.
  3. If you find that the dough is too firm and does not work, add a little milk to the mixture. Wrap the dough with cling film and leave it in the fridge to rest for 30 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle the kitchen counter and the rolling pin with flour. Unroll the dough and open it into a thin to medium-thick sheet.
  5. Take small metal or silicone cases and fill them with the dough, making sure that it covers the walls and protrudes a little.
  6.  If you do not have molds, make baskets by hand or give the tartlets the shape you want. If you do not have a mold, however, make sure to pierce the bottom slightly (not all the way down) so that it does not swell during baking.

For stuffing

  1. You have thrown on the counter the jams that you will use for the filling. Depending on the size of the tartlets, fill them with 1-2 spoons and smooth them slightly.
  2. Place the fruit 2 to 3 in each tart on top of each tart.
  3. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes, placing the grill in the middle position.
  4. The tartlets are ready when the dough is golden and the filling has thickened and blisters.
