Notes
Tip
If you don’t have mini tart bases then a large muffin tray will work just as well.
Variation
Instead of using pastry, you may prefer to try using sliced bread. Grab four slices and roll them out thin with a rolling pin, place them in the moulds and follow as above.
Storage
Once cooked, I cool them and wrap them in cling film individually and freeze them. When I need them, I pop them straight into the kids’ lunch boxes and they are defrosted by lunch time.
