  • 300 g of sugar
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 eggs


Lemon pastry cream :

  • 400 ml of milk

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven at 180°C for 15 minutes.
  2. In a bowl, mix all the sugar pastry ingredients together. Roll out the dough to about 4 mm thick, then line the tart moulds with them. Prick the pastry.
  3. In a pot, bring the milk to a boil. At the same time, whip egg yolks with sugar and corn starch in a bowl. Add lemon zest.
  4. Add egg mixture to boiling milk and cook for two minutes. Add lemon juice. Cover well with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
  5. In a bowl, mix together pumpkin and egg yolks, then add sugar and cinnamon. Mix well. Gently fold in the stiffened egg whites.
  6. 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.
  7. Let cool and serve
