How do you keep jam tarts from bubbling?
Prick each pastry shell several times with a fork all over to prevent air bubbles from forming and the pastry puffing up in the oven. (Alternatively, use baking beads.) If you are not vegan you may use a little milk to brush the pastry. This will help the pastry turn golden brown during cooking but it is not vital.
