The smell of freshly-baked tarts is divine! The fun part is that you just need a ready-made short-crust pastry and your favourite homemade jam and sauce in NSW.  It could be anything, like pineapple, plum, apricot, raspberry, etc.

To begin the process, preheat your oven to 180 degree Celsius  for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, roll out the ready-made pastry and cut it into small circles using a tart tin or a cookie cutter. Next, place these pieces in the tart mould and press them from all sides to give a defined shape.

Now, add a small amount of homemade jam to add a fresh flavour. Bake it for 10-15 minutes, or until the tarts turn golden brown. Cool it down and enjoy the crusty and fruity tarts.

2. Healthy and Fluffy Pancakes

Believe it or not! Pancakes are one of the best breakfast options for busy individuals in Sydney, NSW. To prepare this wholesome dessert, you’ll need pancake batter (use millets for a healthier option), maple syrup and fresh cream.

Mix a pancake batter with a small amount of water- like a ribbon consistency. You can add maple syrup or honey. Now, heat a non-stick pan on medium heat. After that, pour a small amount of batter to make round and cute pancakes. Allow it to cook completely from one side and flip it to cook other side. You can serve it with fresh cream or homemade plum jam.

Ensure you pre-heat the oven to 200 degree Celsius. Meanwhile, roll out the puff pastry sheet and cut it into squares using a cutter or mold. You can place a teaspoon of freshly cut apricots or your favourite jam in the centre and fold the edges to seal the filling. It is good to prepare jams at home using seasonal fruits for added flavours. Now brush it off with melted butter to add more crush and glaze. Now, place the pastry on a baking tray and bake it for 20 minutes. Once cooled, enjoy it with fresh cream and mascarpone cheese.
