Directions

  1. Mix flour, shortening, sugar, and salt together in a food processor until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add water and mix until a ball is formed. Refrigerate pastry until well chilled, at least 30 minutes.

  2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 24 shallow muffin cups.

  3. Roll pastry out thin, cut into rounds with a cookie cutter. Place each round in a muffin cup. Add 2 teaspoons of jam to each cup.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Cool tarts on a wire rack.

Recipe Yield

24 tarts

Recipe Note

These are so simple to make that my 3-year-old daughter did most of the work. Make sure not to roll the pastry too thin, and don't put too much jam in.
