Grab one of these simple rainbow jam filled tarts. It is a tasty snack that all the family will love

 

You will need:

30 heaped tsp. of your favourite jams, curds, marmalades and jellies

 

Sweet pastry:

Lamb Brand Plain flour, 250g (plus extra for dusting)

Lamb Brand Icing sugar, 250g

Unsalted butter, 125g (softened)

Egg, 1

Grated zest of 1 orange or lemon

A splash of milk

All you have to do is:

1.For the pastry, put the flour, sugar and butter in a food processor with a pinch of salt and pulse until you have a mixture that looks like breadcrumbs. Crack in the egg, add the zest from your orange or lemon and pulse again, adding a little milk to bring everything together, if needed. 

2.Wrap the dough in cling film and pop it into the fridge to rest for 30 minutes.

3.Preheat the oven to 180°C. Dust a clean surface and a rolling pin with flour and roll out the pastry so it’s 5mm thick. Get yourself a few 12-hole jam-tart trays (or cook the tarts in batches) and a fluted pastry cutter just a little bigger than the holes of the tray (normally around 6cm). 

4.Cut out rounds of pastry and gently push them into the wells so they come up the sides. Any leftover pastry can be gently pushed back into a ball and rolled out to make a few more tarts. 

5.Put 1 heaped teaspoon of filling into each jam tart, interspersing and alternating the flavours of jams, curds or jellies.

6.Pop the trays on the middle shelf of the oven and cook for 12–15 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and the filling is thick and bubbling.

7.Remove from the oven, leave in the tray to firm slightly, then transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool for a few minutes before serving.

5.Set aside to cool for 10 minutes, then remove from the tin and cool on a wire rack.

6.For the buttercream icing, beat the butter in a large bowl until soft. Add half the icing sugar and beat until smooth.
