These intertwined bundles are really greedy, they remind me of the tarts I used to take to school as a snack. The weave is very easy, it is a simple square folded from corner to corner with a crossing of strips.


Inside I put a simple spread that I bought some time ago that was unused, so I thought I'd finish it completely to fill these mega biscuits.


The shortcrust pastry is simple with a small addition of rice flour, which makes it much more crumbly to the bite and in my opinion it is very good as an alternative to the classic shortcrust pastry. I don't know about you but I love desserts which, from time to time, allow me to clean up the pantry, especially tarts, slowly I'm experimenting with new weaves to make them special and nice. Variants for the filling? Really use what you like best, jams, compotes, chopped fruit or Nutella, the choice is yours!


Happy baking!
