Ingredients
- 2 cups mini pretzel twists
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar (plus more for topping)
- 3/4 cup cold butter, cut into small cubes
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons water
- 1 cup raspberry preserves
Instructions
- In a food processor, add the pretzels, flour and sugar. Pulse until pretzels are crushed.
- Add cold butter and pulse a few times until the mixture is cut into small pea-sized clumps.
- Add the sour cream and pulse a few times.
- Check and see if the mixture holds together between your fingers when pinched. If not, add a little water until it does.
- Turn out on a floured surface and make a dough disk.
- Cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for 30 minutes to chill.
- Gently roll out the dough disk to about 1/4” thickness on a lightly floured surface.
- Using a 3”-4” circle cookie cutter, make rounds and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. (Amount will vary depending on size used. Repeat rolling and cutting until you have a top and a bottom for each tart)
- Make egg wash in a small bowl. Brush egg wash over the all of the bottoms.
- Spoon around 1-2 tablespoons preserves in the middle of the bottom rounds.
- Lay the top rounds over the filling and seal the edges using the back of a fork.
- Make a few slits with a sharp knife on the top of the pies.
- Put baking sheet in freezer for 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Remove from freezer and brush tops with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
- Put in oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool. Enjoy!
Notes:
Use any type of preserves for the filling.
