- Spread the pastry cream about 1 cm thick into the bottom of the moulds. Fill completely with the pumpkin filling. Using a ravioli wheel, cut pastry into strips. Arrange the strips into a crisscross pattern across the top of the tart (optional). Bake in a 180°C pre-heated oven for about 40 minutes.
