Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute coconut yogurt with another type of yogurt?
Yes, you can substitute coconut yogurt with regular yogurt, Greek yogurt, or a dairy-free yogurt alternative if you prefer. Keep in mind that the flavor and texture might change slightly, especially if using yogurts with different fat contents.
How should I store the leftover tarts?
Store any leftover tarts in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. You can also freeze them for up to a month; just make sure to wrap them well to prevent freezer burn.
What should I do if the tarts overflowed while baking?
If your tarts overflowed during baking, it may be because they were overfilled. To prevent this in the future, try filling the cups only about 2/3 full. If they overflowed and are stuck, let them cool a bit before attempting to remove them using a small knife to gently loosen the edges.
