Fig Tart Method
- Preheat your oven to 180 degrees F 82.2 degrees C. Line a baking tray with baking paper
- Take your pastry out of the freezer, leave for a few minutes, separate the sheets and lay one sheet flat on the baking paper
- Run a knife around the edge of the pastry 1-2cm to score it, making the crust
- Use a fork to prick the pastry all over the inside (not the crust) of the pastry
- Bake for 10 mins before sliding the pastry onto the oven rack and placing the baking tray on a lower wrack of the oven. Bake for another 5 minutes or until the pastry is a light golden brown.
- Add cream, icing sugar and vanilla essence to a mixing bowl and beat till soft peaks form in the cream (2-3 mins)
- Slice figs into thin pieces
- Remove pastry from oven and allow to cool
- Make Marmalade Syrup by combining marmalade and water into blender jug and blitz to combine
- Spread cream over pastry sheet
- Top with fig slices
- Drizzle marmalade syrup over fruit and pastry
- Serve with additional cream and marmalade syrup (optional)
