Lime tartlets

These lime tartlets have that lovely tart taste and the frozen raspberries make them even more "tarty"!

Made with my mother's recipe for dough which can be used for many other sweet recipes, they are easy to do once the lime curd is made.

For this lime curd recipe check this out curd

Preparation Time: 35 minutes plus curd
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Makes: 12 tartlets

Ingredients
PASTRY FOR DOUGH
1 cup plain flour
1 cup self raising flour
½ cup sugar
1 egg
140 g butter, softened

FOR THE TARTLETS
130 g low-fat natural yoghurt
80 g lime butter (recipe published separately)
60 g frozen raspberries, thawed

Method
FOR THE PASTRY

Put the flours in a bowl, add the sugar and butter.

Ready to mix

Make a well in the middle and add the egg.

Egg added into middle

Knead this until it is well mixed and the consistency of dough. You may need to add more flour. I always then put these two dough balls into the fridge for 10 minutes or so.

Dough ready to use

This recipe makes enough dough for two cakes, so I freeze the balance.

FOR LIME TARTLETS

Use a 12 pan muffin tin, spray lightly with oil if needed.

Muffin pan for tartlets

Roll out a bit of the dough on a floured surface, and I usually cut out a piece with a glass, and then thin it out with my fingers to fit in the muffin pan.

Making the dough ready for muffin pan

Fill all 12 holes with the dough and bake this for about 10 minutes, and allow to cool a bit.

While it is cooling, take your pre-prepared lime curd out of the fridge

Lime curd already made

Place the yoghurt and lime curd in a bowl and gently stir until combined.

When pastry cases are a bit cooler, just spoon in this lime mixture.

Add the defrosted raspberries on top, and put in the fridge for a short time.

Ready to eat
