I love tarts, so I was looking for an easy-to-make recipe. When I tried this one, it turned out crispy and delicious, so I decided to share it.
The origin of this recipe
I found this recipe in a manga called 'Professor Amemiya's Tea Time at 3 PM'. It was crispy and delicious when I made it. It's also tasty as cookies, not just as a tart.

Steps

1

Sift the flour, sugar, and salt into a bowl. Add the butter and cut it into small pieces using a pastry cutter.
2

Once the butter is small enough, rub it between your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
3

Add the egg, spreading it evenly, and gather the mixture into a ball.
4

Wrap it in plastic wrap, flatten it, and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
5

Roll out the dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch (2-3 mm). Cut it into a round shape slightly larger than the tart pan and place it in the prepared pan.
6

Refrigerate until the dough is firm.
7

Place parchment paper and weights on top, and bake in a 340°F (170°C) oven for about 13 minutes until the bottom is dry.
8

Remove the weights and bake for another 2-3 minutes to ensure the crust is fully cooked.
