How to prepare the orange marmalade tart recipe

1. First of all, prepare the shortcrust pastry. Combine the flour , sugar , a pinch of salt and the grated lemon zest in a bowl.
2. Add the cold butter from the refrigerator, cut into cubes. Start kneading with your fingertips until you obtain a crumbly mixture.
3. Finally add the whole egg and the yolk . Finish kneading quickly and, as soon as you get a dough, wrap it in cling film. Let it rest for at least an hour in the refrigerator .
4. Once the dough has rested, roll out the dough on a lightly floured pastry board. Alternatively you can help yourself with two sheets of baking paper and use the lower one for the mould.
5. Once it reaches a thickness of about 7 mm , transfer it to a baking tray with paper (or butter it well). Trim the excess edges, knead them briefly and transfer them to the freezer for a few minutes.
6. At this point, fill the tart with the jam, leveling it. With the leftover pastry, make decorations which can be the more classic stripes or cookie cutters.
7. Cook at 180°C for approximately 35-40 minutes . Let it cool completely before removing it from the mold.

For a more rustic result, replace 100 g of 00 flour with the same weight of wholemeal or buckwheat flour . Furthermore, you can make an excellent orange marmalade yourself, even in a sugar-free version.
