Tart with condensed milk is an open pie with a base of shortcrust pastry and a layer of filling. Condensed milk filling with fresh citrus notes give it a special tenderness and sweetness. Shortbread dough in this recipe is not quite familiar to us. Instead of butter, vegetable oil is added to the dough. Therefore, the dough is simpler and quicker to prepare. It doesn’t need to be refrigerated like butter-based shortbread dough. The preparation time for the dough and tart filling is only 20 minutes.
Ingredients:
Dough
- All purpose flour – 220-230 gr.
- Sugar – 70 gr.
- Chicken egg – 1 pc.
- Egg yolk – 1 pc
- Vegetable oil – 6 tbsp. spoons
- Baking powder – 1 tsp
- Salt – a pinch
Filling
- Condensed milk – 350-400 gr.
- Lemon – 1 pc.
Cooking process
1 First, prepare the dough. Break the egg into a bowl, add yolk, sugar and salt to it. Mix everything thoroughly. Pour vegetable oil into the resulting mixture and mix. Sift flour and add baking powder. Knead the dough.
The dough turns out to be quite soft and elastic. Thanks to this, it rolls out well and takes the shape we need.
2 Roll out the dough in the form of a circle with a diameter of 23-24 cm. Cut off the excess dough (you can use it later to decorate the top of the tart). Put it in a baking dish so that we get sides with a height of 3 cm. The baking dish must first be lightly greased with oil or covered with parchment paper.
Prick the dough with a fork. And we send it to an oven preheated to 200 C (390F) degrees for 10 minutes.
3 Let’s prepare the filling for the tart. It only takes a couple of minutes. Add lemon juice and the zest of one lemon grated on a fine grater to the condensed milk. Mix everything thoroughly. The filling for our dessert is ready.
4 Take out the form from the oven. Pour the resulting filling onto the dough.
On top of the tart, you can, if desired, decorate with decorative elements from the remains of the dough.
Bake the tart in the oven at 180 C (360F) degrees for 30 minutes.
The finished tart with condensed milk must be chilled. You can put it in the refrigerator for an hour. We do this in order for the filling to finally freeze.
