Note: The dough for the crust normally makes 4 crusts, depending on how thick you want it to be. I prefer having a thin crust. The filling normally makes enough for 2 of these crusts.

Enjoy with a cup of coffee when it has cooled down completely. The tarts can be kept in the fridge once they have cooled down.
