Ingredients
270g pack of filo pastry sheets
4 tablespoons of Biscoff spread
200g strawberries, hulled and quartered
Icing sugar, for dusting
Method
Carefully unroll your filo pastry, and tear each sheet into six to eight even squares. You don’t need to be too neat with these, as they will be layered up in your silicone moulds.
Once your pastry is prepared, start to layer the filo sheets into your silicone cupcake cases, like nests. I like to layer three to four sheets in each case.
Add one teaspoon of Biscoff spread to the base of each filo cup, then transfer to the air fryer and cook at 180°C for 10 minutes, until the pastry is crisp and golden. Check half way through as cooking times may vary depending on what type of air fryer you use.
Once the tart cases are cooked, simply top them with the chopped strawberries, dust with icing sugar and serve your air fried strawberry tarts.
These tarts are not just a treat for your taste buds but also a healthier option compared to traditional deep-fried pastries. The use of filo pastry instead of a heavier dough keeps them light. While the air fryer ensures they are perfectly crisp without the need for lots of oil. This makes them an ideal dessert for those who are conscious of their health but still want to indulge in something sweet and delicious.
So next time you’re in the mood for a sweet treat, give these air fried Biscoff and strawberry tarts a try. They are easy to make, taste incredible, and are sure to become a favourite in your household. Happy cooking.
