We used store-bought puff pastry instead of shortcrust pastry. And instead of dried fruit stewed in brandy we used a packet of fruit mince. Instead of making it in tart tins we just folded the dough circles over their filling.

Method:

We used store-bought puff pastry instead of shortcrust
pastry. And instead of dried fruit stewed in brandy we used a packet of fruit
mince. Instead of making it in tart tins we just folded the dough circles over
their filling.

Preheat the oven to 200 °C.

Grease a baking sheet.

1. Gently roll out the pastry and cut out 8 circles, each
about 10 cm in diameter. Arrange the circles on the baking sheet.

2. Filling Mix the fruit mince and lemon zest (if using) and
place a large spoonful of the mixture on one half of each pastry circle.

3. Scatter the marzipan and almonds on top.  Brush the pastry edges with water.

4. Fold the other half of the pastry over the filling to make
a crescent.

5. Crimp the edges with a fork and brush with the egg yolk
mixture. Repeat with the remaining pastry circles.

6. Bake for 20 minutes or until the pastry is golden and
slightly puffed.

7. Dust with icing sugar and serve lukewarm or cold.
