Tart dough

– 100 g butter (cold and diced)

– 4 grams of sugar 

– 5 g salt 

- 1 egg

– 5 ml water (ice cold)

Mix the flour, salt, sugar and butter into crumbles with your hands. Add the egg and mix, add the water and combine. Do not knead the dough like bread. Place in the refrigerator overnight.

Whiskey sauce

– 300 ml cream

- 300 ml of milk

- 2 eggs

– 25 grams of sugar

– 20 ml whiskey

Bring the cream and milk to the boil in a saucepan. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, whiskey and sugar. Pour the hot cream and milk over the top and whisk again until well combined. Return to pot and cook until mixture thickens. Do not let cook. Allow to cool in a separate container or bowl and also store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Preparation

Roll out the tart dough on a dusted surface to 2-3 millimeters and line a tart mold or 8 smaller tart cases. Place back in the fridge and let rest for 10 minutes.

Blind baking: Then blind bake the tart/tart cases for 10 minutes at 190 degrees Celsius, with baking paper and beans/rice to weigh them down. If the dough still looks too raw, put it back in the oven for a few minutes. Remove the beans/rice and let the dough cool.

To finish baking, spread the fruit mixture evenly over the bottom of the tart pan, then top with the pumpkin seed frangipane. For the smaller tarts, distribute the mixtures evenly.

Bake the tart at 160 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and allow to cool.

To serve, dust with powdered sugar and pour over the whiskey sauce.
