Steps

    Wrap the obtained dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

  • After resting time, roll out the dough on a lightly floured cutting board, place inside a buttered and floured 10-11 inch diameter mold, and trim the edges.

    Place and level the jam inside, with the leftover dough, create slightly flattened balls and arrange on the tart.

  • Bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for about 25-30 minutes.
