Recipe

Air fryer plum tartlets

Air fryer plum tartlets with shortcrust pastry and almonds. Small shallow moulds hold fruit juices while thin plum wedges bake evenly.

Ingredients

4 servings

Method

  1. 1

    Prepare

    Butter four moulds and line evenly with pastry. Form a low rim and prick bases. Stone plums and slice thin wedges. Use a heatproof dish suitable for the appliance, leaving space around it for airflow. Do not preheat with loose paper.

  2. 2

    Fill and assemble

    Spread almonds on bases. Lay plums flat, sprinkle sugar and cinnamon. Do not pour released cutting-bowl juice over.

  3. 3

    Bake and check doneness

    If required by the manufacturer, preheat for 3 minutes at 160 °C. Bake about 22 minutes at 160 °C. Rim and base must bake through despite fruit juices. Extend if needed. Leave airflow gaps around moulds.

  4. 4

    Cool and portion

    Cool about 10 minutes and release carefully. Serve very juicy tartlets in moulds rather than breaking soft bases. No icing included.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ about Air fryer plum tartlets

They absorb some juice and complement pastry, but do not make raw bases cooked.

No, washed edible skin stays; remove stones completely.

That changes shape, pastry thickness and timing. These times are for small moulds.

Juice, warm pastry or underbaked base may cause it. Check baking and cooling.
