Description
Perfect for brunch, tea parties, or a last-minute sweet fix, these Jam Puff Pastry Tarts bake up in minutes with just a handful of ingredients. We’ve doubled the batch and added some fun twists for extra flair!
Ingredients
4 sheets store-bought puff pastry, thawed
1 cup jam (mix flavors like raspberry, apricot, or fig)
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Flour, for dusting
Raw or turbinado sugar, for topping
Optional Twists:
Add ½ tsp cream cheese or Nutella under the jam for richness
Sprinkle with lemon zest before baking
Drizzle with vanilla glaze after baking (powdered sugar + milk + vanilla)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line baking sheets with parchment.
Lightly flour your surface and roll out puff pastry. Cut each sheet into 9 rectangles (36 total).
Score a border around each rectangle and prick the centers with a fork (crucial to prevent over-puffing).
Add 1 tsp jam to center of each tart. (Don’t overfill!)
Brush edges with egg wash and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
Bake for 15–18 minutes, until puffed and golden. Cool slightly.
Optional: Drizzle with glaze and top with fresh mint or a dusting of powdered sugar.
