Method
Prepare Quick Jam
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine fresh or frozen raspberries with granulated sugar, water, and cornstarch. Stir gently and cook for about 5–10 minutes until the jam thickens.
Make Pastry Dough
- In a large mixing bowl or food processor, blend all-purpose flour, vegan butter, and powdered sugar until crumbly. Gradually add cold water until a soft dough forms. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Roll and Cut Pastry
- Roll out the chilled pastry dough to about 5mm thick on a floured surface. Cut out circles to fit your greased mini tart tins, pressing gently into each tin.
Fill Tarts
- Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of cooled raspberry jam into each pastry shell, ensuring an even distribution.
Bake
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the filled tarts for about 20 minutes or until the pastry edges turn golden brown and the jam bubbles slightly.
Cool and Serve
- Allow the tarts to cool in the tins for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Use fresh, ripe raspberries for best flavor. Thaw and reheat frozen tarts in the oven for optimal texture.
