Method

  1. Prepare the pastry

    Roll the pastry sheet into a long log, then cut it into discs. Press each disc into a buttered muffin tin hollow so that the pastry also covers the sides.

  2. Cook the custard

    Whisk the milk, sugar, flour and grated lemon zest until smooth, then cook over a medium heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens.

    10 min
  3. Add the egg yolks

    Off the heat, quickly beat the egg yolks into the custard so that it becomes silky. Leave it to cool slightly.

    5 min
  4. Fill

    Spoon the cooled custard into the pastry cases, filling them about three-quarters full.

  5. Bake

    Preheat the oven to 240–260°C, then bake the tarts in the hot oven for 12–15 minutes, until the tops are nicely browned.

    14 min
  6. Serve

    Serve warm, dusting the tops with the icing sugar mixed with the cinnamon.
