Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature.
Using a mixer, beat the eggs and sugar together. Add the salt, vanilla, and baking powder. Gradually blend in the flour.

Step 2

Baking

Pour the batter into a greased baking dish and add your favorite fruits and berries.
Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 40-50 minutes, until the top is golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.

Variations

🌱 **Gluten-Free:** Substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend of your choice. Make sure your baking powder is gluten-free as well to avoid any unwanted surprises.

🌿 **Vegan:** Replace the eggs with a vegan alternative like flaxseed meal (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 2.5 tablespoons water = 1 egg). Use a plant-based sugar and ensure your vanilla is vegan-friendly.

Faq

  • How do I know when my pastry is done baking?

    Insert a toothpick into the center of the pastry. If it comes out clean or with just a few crumbs, your pastry is done. The top should also be golden brown.

  • Can I use frozen fruits instead of fresh ones?

    Yes, you can use frozen fruits. Just make sure to thaw and drain them well to avoid excess moisture in your pastry.

  • Can I substitute the sugar with a healthier option?

    Absolutely, you can use alternatives like coconut sugar, honey, or maple syrup. Keep in mind that the texture and sweetness level may change slightly.

  • What can I add to make the pastry more flavorful?

    You can add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter. A splash of lemon or orange zest can also enhance the overall flavor.

  • How can I ensure the fruits don’t sink to the bottom of the pastry?

    Toss the fruits in a little flour before adding them to the batter. This will help them stay suspended throughout the pastry.

  • Can I store the pastry and for how long?

    Yes, you can store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want to keep it longer, refrigerate it for up to a week or freeze for up to a month.
