Notes
Store tarts in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
To freeze, make sure tarts have fully cooled and place them on a lined baking tray. Freeze for 2 hours and then transfer to a labelled sandwich bag, making sure you squeeze as much air out of the bag as possible when sealing.
When ready to use, defrost overnight in the fridge or in a lunchbox for a couple of hours and the tarts will be ready to eat once fully defrosted.
