Coconut And Jam Tarts Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare pie crust according to your directions and cut and fit into small tart tins. Press evenly against bottom and sides. (or you can use pre-made small tarts
• Cream butter and sugar.
• Add eggs, one at a time, beating until smoothly blended.
• Stir in coconut and vanilla.
• Spoon 1/2 teaspoon jam into each tart shell.
• Cover each tart 2/3 full with coconut mixture.
• Bake on bottom shelf at 300°F for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
• Cool slightly then remove from pans. Makes 2 dozen tarts.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together.
• To your tart shell, add 1 teaspoons of jam. Cover with coconut mixture. Bake at 350 until browned.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Place a shallow 23cm flan tin on a baking tray. Tip the spices, coconut and sugar into a pan with 150ml water and cook over a low heat for about 5 mins, stirring frequently to ensure the mixture doesn't catch. Set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and use to line the flan tin. Trim off the excess pastry, fill the pastry case with baking parchment and baking beans and cook for 15 mins. Remove the beans and cook for 5 mins more so the pastry on the base of the tin is just cooked, but not brown.
• Beat the egg and melted butter into the cooled coconut mixture, then spoon into the pastry case and smooth the top. Bake for 25 mins until the pastry is golden and the coconut pale golden. Serve with cream or real vanilla ice cream and some Cape gooseberries, then follow with cups of black Rooibos tea.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place frozen mini tart shells on a baking sheet.
• Beat the butter, sugar, egg, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined. Stir in the coconut. Place 1/2 teaspoon of jam into each mini tart shell, and fill the shells with about 1 tablespoon of the coconut mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the shells and topping are lightly golden brown, about 20 minutes. Cool on wire rack.
