This is a simple 4-ingredient sweet potato tart a.k.a the 'fake' egg tart (Adapted from a recipe I saw online). It's fast and easy to make. No electric mixer and kneading needed at all - just using bread as the tart crust/shells! It's also sugar free, healthy and completely suitable for toddlers!
They do look pretty much like the real ones, don't they? Hehe. |
The sweet potato custard filling is equally as smooth, but not as glassy or shiny as the real ones :P |
Ingredients:
- 1 egg yolk
- 30g fresh milk
- 30g steamed Japanese sweet potato, mashed
- 3 slices of wholemeal bread (white ones are fine too)
- Preheat oven to 150°C.
- Cut the crust off from each slice of bread and flatten them with a rolling pin.
- Cut a round shape on each slice of bread using a glass (A bigger glass or bowl will yield 2 tarts only) and place it into the muffin tray cup.
- Mix egg yolk, mashed sweet potato and milk together. Strain the mixture through a sieve for 2-3 times to make it smooth.
- Pour the mixture into the bread 'shell' til almost full.
Fill each 'shell' til almost full. - Bake in the preheated oven for 5 mins, then change to 125°C for another 10 mins, or til fully cooked. Use a toothpick to test. If it comes out clean, it's done.
