Method
- Shortcrust gingerbread base
Mix all ingredients on low speed until a crumble texture is reached, for about 3 minutes (using a flat beater). Line three 20 cm rings with the dough.
- Poppy seed filling
Combine all ingredients thoroughly. Spread the finished mass evenly into the three rings lined with the shortcrust dough.
- Fig filling
Pipe the Fruitcream Fig filling onto the poppy seed mass in a lattice pattern.
- Cheese mass
Combine the ingredients (using a flat beater) until smooth and spread into the rings. Bake the whole at 180°C for about 45 minutes. Cool the tarts after baking.
- Fig glaze
Mix the pectin with the sugar. Heat the Paletta Neutral Paste with the water, the Fruitcream Fig filling and the lemon juice to 50°C, then add the sugar and pectin mixture. Bring to the boil together and pour over the tarts, about 220 g per piece.
