Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a mini muffin tin with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and confectioners' sugar. Add the cold butter and use a pastry blender or your fingers to work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually pour in the orange juice, stirring with a fork until the dough comes together.
  4. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. Cut out circles using a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass.
  5. Place a small spoonful of mixed fruit preserves in the center of each circle. Top with a piece of fresh fruit.
  6. Fold the dough over the filling to form a triangle or a square shape. Press the edges to seal. Use a piping bag to create a decorative border.
  7. Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden glaze. Place the tarts on a baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  8. Allow the tarts to cool on a wire rack before serving alongside your favorite punch!
