Hello Geoff - your tarts look wonderful! I started making jam tarts with left over sweet pastry and shop bought jams. I was making them one day and my daughter asked me if I wanted her left over raspberries just to eat - at first I thought ‘no’ but then a light bulb went on in my head and I popped a fresh raspberry into the middle of my pastry cup and popped the raspberry jam over the top and baked them as usual. My goodness! The surprise of a juicy raspberry when you bite into your tart was wonderful and I do it all the time now! ( apologies for the long waffle…) Liz
Hi Liz. Thanks very much. I like the idea of a raspberry too. I am prone to waffling too, so don't worry. What's the point of a good idea if you cant go on about it, endlessly. LOL.
All your recipes look absolutely delicious.....thanks for sharing! In South Africa we put a coconut meringue mix on top of the jam which is also a super tea snack.
Hey Geoff, great video! Thank you for showing how to make the pastry, many other videos call for store-bought tarts but I now know how to make it. Thank you so much 👍🏽
Love your baking, and these jam tarts turned out the best! Just a side note, can you please tell me, the make and model of your processor , many thanks.
Those look so simple but so good... I haven't had Jam Tarts in a very long time either... I will give that a go for sure... I have some fig and lemon jam that I made a while back , and some apricot sounds good too. Thanks for the tip of adding a bit of water to the jam too.
A lovely memory of Sunday tea time specials 😀 I've been off store bought cakes for years - way too sweet in my opinion I haven't had jam tarts in an age and I've just made some gooseberry jam so I can see a happy combination coming soon
@@geoffsbakingblog - Yeah, I hadn't seen gooseberries for ages when they turned up at the fruit farm I visit in Wexford. Lovely in a tart (I also do them with a pastry case and lightly ginger flavoured sponge top)
@@susannahp8107 Hi Susannah. If you mean what is shown next to my name on TH-cam, that is a pine cone. In fact it is a photograph I took when I was at Threave Gardens in Scotland some years ago. It is a giant sculpture of a pine cone. www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/305470787216025099/
Thanks Geoff. My Mum has a fruit in her garden that is exactly that shape, green , soft and sweet to eat! We have no idea what it is. Thought that pine cone was the same thing. Appreciate you getting back to me!
Nice and easy! I´ll make them. I have tons of jams of different flavors. I make my own jam, so when I do, I make many flasks of each. At the moment I have strawberry jam, grape jam (from the vine that my dad has at his backyard), kinoto marmalade, orange marmalade (made with the bitter and inedible wild oranges from many trees from the streets of my town
Hi Geoff this recipe looks delicious, and very easy to make, I could just sit there and eat 5 of them at one sitting lol😂. Can I make this recipe without the yolk?
HI Farida. I can eat many of these too. You can make the pastry without the egg yolk, but you would need to use a little more butter, or water, to compensate. Try it by adding a tablespoon of water first, and then more if needed.
I’m gonna be making some mulberry jam tarts for a coworker. We play word guessing games at work, and nobody could guess the word, “tart”, so I’m gonna have to show them what a proper tart is!
I've just removed a. Message it got cut off mid stream... UGHHH.. Anyway I will try again...HI GEOFF,,, I've been making your rich chocolate cake into muffins with those lovely cases with the sticky up SIDES.. plus coffee icing they look scrumptious... Now JAM TARTS BRING BACK GREAT MEMORIES OF MY GRANNY SHE ALWAYS MADE JAM AND ALSO LEMON CURD TARTS SHE WOULD DO THEM IF WE WENT TO TEA( A SIT DOWN TEA) ALONG WITH VICTORIA SANDWICH CAKE AND SANDWICHES I LOVED IT... SHE WAS A GREAT PASTRY MAKER.. I'M A Bit hit and miss... 😂😂😂👍💕
Hi Henrietta. Your muffins sound delish. I don't think many people make jam tarts anymore. They seem to be more of a thing from out childhood. I never think those in the shops taste of anything very much at all. But mine have been enjoyed by my niece and her husband. She, apparently, scored them a 'fat 10 out of 10'.
@@geoffsbakingblog I agree the shop ones do not Compare to homemade... I used to love the way the lemon curd ones would be all sticky around the edges... I will make some and give them away because I would eat the whole tray Ive got no control with lemon or jam tarts....... 🍋🍓🍓🍋Take care GEOFF 💕
Hi Cindie. As I mention in the video the amount of jam is individual choice. Of course the type and sweetness of the jam is also a matter of personal preference.
@@geoffsbakingblog That's true, i have made them before a while back though, and couldn't remember how much i put in, next time i will go with 1 teaspoon, the jam i used was probably over sweet as well!
what can i say...YUM !!!! Thumbs up
Hi Ric. Thanks very much.
Jam tarts have never looked so good 😍 Loved the selection of jams as well.
Hi Shoma Bhattacharya. Thanks very much.
Excellent recipe Geoff and very easy to prepare. I will definitely do it
Hi Germarie Torres. thanks very much. I hope you enjoy them.

Hi Susan. Yes, a nice old fashioned treat.
I wanted this recipe so badly!! Thank you very much!!
Hi Ms Maverick. You are welcome.
I’m so glad to have found your channel! I’ve been obsessed with the Verona Tarts and this inspired me to now start making my own 😊. Thank you again!

HI William, you are most welcome.
Love your baking, and these jam tarts turned out the best! Just a side note, can you please tell me, the make and model of your processor , many thanks.
HI Green Light. Thanks very much. I used a Braun MultiQuick5 hand blender with processor bowl, which comes in a variety of configurations.
Yum look delicious 😋 I will definitely try this recipe 🤤 thank you 😁
Hi Nataha. Thanks very much. I hope you enjoy the tarts.
Thank you again Geoff for another delightful dessert. I believe it could be good also with Blackberry jam.
Hi Mary. Yes I think blackberry jam would be great, though I would want to remove the seeds, they tend to be rather large.
@@geoffsbakingblog yes they are. Just have to heat it some and then strain it. Then let it cool some .
Very simple clear no nonsense video ,with the addition of baking tips that have been tried and tested. We'll done .
Hi Nat. Thanks very much.

HI Julie-joy. They are very simple and quite delicious. Very popular in the early fifties when we still had food rationing.
These look lovely. Thanks Geoff!!!!
HI Mary. Thanks very much.
I'm just about to try this
Hi Mamma of 4. I hope you and the 4 enjoy them .
Thank you Geoff they look delightful. Hannah will love them I'm sure. You must have quite a few spoilt family and friends.
HI Diane. Thanks very much. I do hope she enjoys them, I haven't heard yet.

HI Graham. I haven't had gooseberry jam for many years. Maybe I need to make some, when I can get some gooseberries.

Hi Nasreen Akhtar. That's great. I am glad you enjoyed them.
Thanks Geoff, your niece Hanna has good taste.!! These look delicious.
Hi Susannah. Thanks very much.
Geoff, what is the name of that fruit you have displayed on your page? My mum has them in her garden but doesn't know what they are called?

@@susannahp8107 HI Susannah. I am no expert but a quick search showed me custard apples. I wonder if that may be what your Mum has. bit.ly/3yve3VG
What a great video 😊
Hi Umm Zariya. Thanks very much.
Thanks for the video. To make these elegant enough to serve to royal visitors just sprinkle some edible gold flakes on the top.
Oh yes, these can be 'tarted' up with sprinkles, coconut or whatever.
Lovely
HI Mad Hatter, thanks very much.
They look so yummy, nice one, Geoff. The first time I baked jam tarts it was from a previous video you made regarding baking jam tarts.
Hi Theobovril. thanks very much. I think this version, with a little water in the jam, makes a better tart that my previous attempts.
Good info
Hi Roy. Thanks.
Just made the tarts
Too hot to sample
@@royalanethridge333 Oh yes, let them cool or they will do severe damage to your mouth.
They will soon cool down here in Norway Geoff
