LEMON CURD TARTS



Lemon Curd Tarts image

These lemon curd tarts are a staple dessert at my tea parties. I can make them quickly without even measuring the ingredients using a pastry bag to fill the small shells. The crust remains crunchy for several hours, so I make them early the morning of the tea and then refrigerate them. I also serve these at wedding and baby showers. For variation, you can place 1/4 teaspoon raspberry spread underneath the lemon curd and garnish with a fresh raspberry, omitting the cinnamon. Another variation is to use lime curd instead of lemon, both of which can be found in the baking aisle of the grocery store.

Time 25m

Yield 8 tarts

Number Of Ingredients 4

375 g puff pastry
7 tablespoons lemon curd
4 apples
double cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to has 7, 220C, fan 200°C Line two baking sheets with nonstick baking paper.
  • Unroll the puff pastry sheet, lay it on a work surface, then cut into 8 rectangles. Lightly score about 5mm (1/4 in) from the edges of each rectangle with a sharp knife, to give a narrow border. Lay them on the baking sheets. Spread 1/2 tablespoon of the lemon curd over the centre of each piece of pastry, just up to the border.
  • Lay the apple slices onto each piece of pastry so they overlap, standing up slightly, and cover the centre of the pastry, but leave most of the border uncovered. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the apples are just tender and the pastry edges are golden.
  • Meanwhile, for the glaze, warm the remaining 3 tablespoons of lemon curd in a small pan with 2 teaspoons of water, until it is just runny. Remove the tarts from the oven, and brush the apples and pastry edges with the glaze. Leave them to cool slightly, then serve warm with double cream or vanilla ice cream.

LEMON CURD TARTS



Lemon Curd Tarts image

A few weeks ago we developed this delicious lemon curd recipe and have been so in love with it ever since. It's so versatile you can eat it on toast, with salad, on scones or even in a delicious and healthy dessert tart, just like this one. Not only is this recipe super delicious, it's also really healthy, gluten free and sugar free. When you make the lemon curd don't worry if it's quite lumpy, you just need to put it through a sieve to remove the lumps and you'll have a fruity, delicious and smooth filling for your tarts.
