Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 4 drops vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tbsp water
  • sprinkles

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
    Place oats in a food processor. Blend until oats become flour.
    Add flour, sugar, salt, baking powder. Pulse to combine.
    Cut butter into chunks. Add butter chunks & greek yogurt. Process until clumpy.
  • Add water. Process until combined.
    Remove dough from the food processor & form a ball.
    Grab a piece of parchment paper & a rolling pin.
    Form a log with the dough & place on the parchment paper.
  • Roll dough out thin on the parchment paper, approximately 18"x12". Dough is very easy to work with, you won't need more flour.
    Decide if you want to make individual PR tarts or one big tart. For individual, cut into 12-16 even pieces & separate.
  • Spread strawberry jam over half the dough. For the slab, fold the dough in half over the jam. For tarts, match up even sizes.
    Using a fork, seal the edges. Spend a moment sealing them well. If they do leak when cooked, just cut off the spillage & they will be fine.
    Bake: 20 minutes for 1 large tart & 16-18 minutes for individual tarts. If you're making smaller tarts, watch starting at 12 minutes and remove from oven when they start to brown on the endges.
    Allow to cool completely.
    Mix powdered sugar with vanilla & water. Drizzle over tarts. Top with sprinkles.
    Store in the refrigerator.
