cornflake tart

[peachybums]

You know like the ones you used to get with your school dinner?

stupid question alert

Anyone know of how to make? is it just as simple as pastry topped with jam, cornflakes and syrup? Do i cook pastry first, add topping then cool?

TIA

Cornflake tart:-
Base just shortcrust pastry
Mix half fat to flour, so 4oz of marg to 8oz of plain flour. Crumble till it looks like bread crumbs.
Add in extremely cold water a little at a time till it starts to bind together and try to shape it into a ball.
Place in a and let it chill in the fridge for about 30 mins or till your ready to use it.

For the filling:
175g seedless raspberry jam
50g butter / margarine
50g caster sugar / granulated
2tbsp golden syrup
175g cornflakes

Bake the pastry in the oven till cooked
While the pastry is cooking make the batter by mixing margarine, sugar together till its looks fluffy.
Remove pastry, place the batter on top followed by golden syrup, then place the jam on top then the cornflakes.
Place back into the oven gas mark 5 till the cornflakes look golden brown about 20ish minutes
Serve hot or cold.

Sounds yummy.
