Ingredients
Crust Ingredients
- 1 cup Crushed Biscuits
- ¼ cup Ground Pistachios
- 3 tablespoons Melted Butter
Filling Ingredients
- 1 cup Strawberry Puree
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the Tart Base: Combine the crushed biscuits and ground pistachios in a bowl to create a nutty base. Pour in the melted butter and stir thoroughly until all crumbs are evenly coated and sticky, which will help the crust hold its shape during baking.
- Shape the Tartlets: Firmly press the crust mixture into small tart molds or a mini muffin tin, ensuring an even layer pressed across the bottom and up the sides to form sturdy shells that won’t crumble.
- Add the Strawberry Filling: Mix the strawberry puree with sugar to balance the tartness. Spoon this sweetened puree gently into each crust shell, filling them fully without overflowing, creating the juicy center of the tartlets.
- Bake to Perfection: Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the tartlets for about 20 minutes until the strawberry filling sets and the crust achieves a golden crispness. Allow them to cool completely before removing from the molds to maintain their shape.
Notes
- For best results, use fresh, ripe strawberries to make the puree.
- You can substitute crushed biscuits with graham crackers or digestive biscuits.
- Press the crust mixture firmly to avoid crumbling when removing tartlets from the mold.
- Allow tartlets to cool fully to let the filling set completely.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature for a refreshing breakfast treat.
