I have lamented tart crusts for years, as it seemed that no matter what I did–chill the crusts, weight the crusts, arranged small prayer circles outside the oven–they shrunk on me. No matter how many fingers I crossed, no matter how many Guaranteed No-Fail tricks I auditioned, no matter how many pounds of butter I had sacrificed in my quest, the crust I’d remove from the oven would hold as little as half of the volume of the one I put in, leading to thin tarts and pools of extra filling and oh so very many gray hairs. tart shell Which is why today it is taking all of my restraint not to run up that last flight of stairs and shout from my rooftop: I have conquered my tart shells at last, and they shrink no more! … Although I suspect in my neck of this island, that would barely cause an eyebrow to arch. But it is true, so deliciously true. And before I go any further–you know, into the most awesome stuff I filled this tart crust with–I need to mark this momentous occasion its own post

Oat-crusted with a creamy, ginger-spiked yogurt filling, these charming tartlets finish off a meal quite nicely. 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour 1/3 cup rolled oats scant 1/2 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt 1/3 cup + 1 tablespoon butter, coconut oil, or olive oil 2 tablespoons maple syrup 2 tablespoons natural cane sugar (optional) 1/4 teaspoon toasted sesame oil 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (I use low-fat here) 1/4 cup maple syrup zest of one lemon 3 teaspoons fresh ginger juice* 2 large eggs, lightly beaten crystalized ginger, dried fruit, or fresh fruit/berries for topping special equipment: 6 small tart (4-inch) pans or I suspect one 9-inch tart pan would be just about right for a single tart.

I've never thought of using yogurt as a filling for tarts, but this sounds delicious and light.

These charming little tartlets finish off a meal nicely. Oat-crusted with a creamy, ginger-spiked yogurt filling, they are delightful topped with any number of adornments - fresh berries, dried fruit, or crystallized ginger.

Made the pumpkin tart with this. I was not too skilled at rolling it out, but it seems to have come out fine anyway.
