This is a very quick blog post about these jam tarts I made for Valentines Day. I thought I would make these to give to my boyfriend for Valentine’s Day as he loves jam. I got the idea for these on Pinterest, they were called Queen of heart tarts and were made for a Alice in Wonderland party.
Although these look ok in the picture above, once baked they looked awful! I followed a recipe for jam tarts which clearly did not jam spilled out everywhere and the hearts puffed up looking like some kind of massacre happened in the oven! Next time I bake these I will bake the tarts blind first and bake the hearts separately on a baking sheet . Then put the jam in the pre cooked tarts for about 5 mins until the jam bubbles up. Once out the oven I would place the prebaked hearts on top of the jam tarts while they are still warm. Hopefully this would make a Tart with a crisp pastry, jam that has not boiled over and a heart that is flat. The perfect jam tart! Sorry this is a bit of a lame post but I just wanted to try and keep you in the loop with my baking, even if it does not go to plan.
