I know that some people find the prospect of making pastry really daunting. You don’t have to make it. There are really good shop bought packets of pastry and I definitely use them when it suits me. Or if you want to make a tart without pastry but which still slices try my Plum and Walnut Crumble Tart

If you do want to give pastry a go and have a food processor then this recipe is an easy one of making a sweet shortcrust or pate sucre as cheffy types call it.
