Eid Mubarak is just around the corner. Tasty cake or cookie treats are one of the must have items during special day don’t you agree? What is your must have sweet treat during special day just like Eid Mubarak?
For me, during special day Pineapple Tart or Nastar is a must have. I remember it clearly from the beginning up until now, my mom always prepares special treats for me and my family. Even though I have moved to the other city, she always remembers to prepare and send me her special cookies and cakes.
Then when I saw this special campaign about giving back to the parents at http://www.kejumooo.com, I got inspired to show my mom gratitude for her care all this time.
I decided to make a special treat for my mom inspired by her Pineapple Tart or Nastar recipe with a special twist of surprise for her. Instead of using pineapple jam filling, I changed it with apple jam filling instead. I bought this special set of KRAFT Cheddar Cheese set for Ramadhan complete with 2 boxes of KRAFT Cheddar Cheese and one cookie Jar with special design for Ramadhan.
The recipe itself is quite simple and easy actually, it doesn’t require lots of ingredients or any special skill to make it, just simply mix, cook and bake it. You can see the detailed ingredients and instruction on the recipe and video below:
Tart ingredients:
100 gr margarine
1 pcs egg yolk
30 gr sugar
170 gr flour
1 tbsp corn starch
50 gr grated KRAFT Cheddar Cheese
Filling ingredients:
350gr of grated apple
1 tbsp corn starch
60 gr sugar
2 gr cinnamon powder
Topping ingredients:
20 gr grated KRAFT Cheddar Cheese
Egg wash (1 egg + 1 tbsp egg)
Instruction:
1. Mix and cook all of the filling ingredients with medium heat until it thickens
2. Mix well all of the tart ingredients
3. Fill the tart dough with the filling and shape it round
4. Apply egg wash on top of the tarts and sprinkle it with grated cheese
5. Bake at 160 Celsius for 15 minutes
The minute my Mini Apple Tarts started to cook in the oven, it started to produce this kind of tempting buttery cheesy aroma that will definitely makes everyone drool.
It tasted sooo good, sooo fragrant yet irresistible thanks to the use of grated KRAFT Cheddar cheese inside and outside, while for the filling itself was sweet yet tangy typical apple flavor and just as good as the classic pineapple jam.
I’m very happy with the result because the Mini Apple Tarts are sooo good I hope my mom will enjoy it as much as I enjoyed her pineapple tarts.
