Description
Mini Milk Tart Tarts are a delightful twist on the classic South African dessert, featuring creamy, lightly sweetened custard in crisp tart shells, topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pack pre-made mini tart shells
- 1 can (400g) condensed milk
- 1 cup full-cream milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp cornflour
- 2 large eggs
- Ground cinnamon for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Place mini tart shells in a muffin tin to keep them stable.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together condensed milk, full-cream milk, and eggs until well combined.
- In a small bowl, mix cornflour with a tablespoon of the milk mixture to form a slurry.
- Add the cornflour slurry to the main milk mixture and whisk until combined. Stir in vanilla extract.
- Pour the custard mixture into tart shells, filling them about ¾ full.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes or until custard is set and lightly golden. Centers should be slightly jiggly.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely in the muffin tin.
- Sprinkle with ground cinnamon before serving.
Notes
- Use a jug or spouted bowl to easily pour the custard into the shells.
- Tarts can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg to the cinnamon topping.
