🥧 Air Fryer Jam Tarts Recipe Tips

🔄 Use mini tart pans or silicone molds – Helps the crust hold its shape while cooking.
🌡️ Don’t overfill with jam – A little goes a long way and prevents overflow.
🌪️ Preheat the air fryer – Ensures even cooking and a golden crust.
🕒 Keep an eye on the time – They cook quickly, usually in 5–7 minutes.
