This is my first home made egg tarts. I started everything from scratch. Making the filling of egg tarts is easy... but the pastry itself is the most difficult part and need to spend a lot of time on it in order to make a flaky egg tart. I will share all the ingredients and steps to make egg tarts.
- 200g flour
- 50g icing sugar
- 100g melted butter
- 2 eggs
- 4 eggs
- 80g sugar
- 100ml water
- 100ml milk
- Mix all flour and icing sugar in a big bowl.
- Add in the butter into the bowl and mix well. Then add in 1 egg.
- Put the dough into freezer for about 15 minutes.
- Warm up the 100ml water and milk and add 80g sugar. Stir until sugar fully melt.
- Put the filling aside to let it cool down. Put 3 eggs into the cooled filling. (make sure is not hot)
- Gently grease the baking tray with some butter or oil.
- Cut the pastry into portions and flatten it into small rounds.
- Fit the small rounded pastry into the greased baking tray by pressing firmly on bottom and side.
- Fill the pastry with the egg mixture (Ingredients B).
- Bake the egg tarts at 200 degrees Celsius for 15-20 minutes until the filling turn brown.
- Enjoy your egg tarts with a cup of coffee.
