Easy Portuguese Milk and Lemon Tarts Recipe: Creamy & Quick
These easy Portuguese milk tarts deliver a professional bakery finish with minimal effort. By blending whole milk, lemon zest, and eggs, you create a smooth batter that transforms into dense, custardy lemon milk tartlets in the oven. This easy queijadas de leite recipe relies on the natural caramelization of sugars to produce a golden, slightly tacky top that balances the bright acidity of the citrus.
Ingredients
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Combine the sugar, flour, lemon zest, melted butter, milk, and eggs in a blender and process until completely smooth or whisk vigorously by hand until no lumps remain.
- Grease and flour twelve tart baking molds or muffin tins thoroughly to ensure easy release.
- Pour the liquid batter into the prepared molds filling them nearly to the top.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until the tarts are set in the center and the tops have developed a deep golden color.
- Allow the tarts to cool in the molds for at least 10 minutes to firm up before carefully removing them.
