RICOTTA AND JAM FILLED TART, a light dessert with oil-based shortcrust pastry, easy and quick to prepare, perfect for breakfast or a snack.
The ricotta and jam filled tart is a truly delicious dessert. I love tarts and today I thought of making one filled in a very simple and lighter way. I had some ricotta to use up and some berry jam, so I thought of making this nice dessert.
Of course, to make the ricotta and jam filled tart you can use any kind of jam you have at home. I used berry jam, and if you don’t have ricotta, mascarpone or Philadelphia works perfectly.
The dessert is very simple and very good; children will love it too.
