Can i use cake flour

[@rinzasufiyan4822]

Thank you very much

[@andreafaria4980]

It doesn't stick to the muffin pan? That's what I'm nervous about since I don't have any cooking spray.

[@abakingjourney]

I've never had that issue no - they always just slide out!

Pls let me know if i can make them n stire for long in an air tight container...n how long can i keep this

[@abakingjourney]

if you dont plan on using them straight away, you can freeze them :)

[@momokoyukihira5057]

What did you put on top of the tart before baking ? What kind of nut is it?

[@abakingjourney]

it's rice and dry chickpeas

[@melanieauricchio9931]

Why do you add dry chickpeas and rice and what is the paper u put in it first?

[@lorenaserrano1810]

i believe it’s to add weight

[@monicapurushothaman7374]

Wats d size of cookie cutter

[@abakingjourney]

Is the muffin pan avalaible at Amazon, what do you call it?

[@abakingjourney]

@@abakingjourney Your reply is much appreciated. Thank you!

@@abakingjourney Where did you buy your muffin pans? I could not find one online that is identical to yours. Thanks

Can i use oil instead of butter n if yes which oul will be better

[@abakingjourney]

unfortunately no

[@hafsahussaini1529]

Mine are doubling their sizes after baking and I didn’t put baking

[@emilyhunt8853]

Did you use self raising flour instead of plain flour?
Or maybe skip weighing down the centre with bits of paper and pie weights?
It could also happen if you don't chill the dough before putting them in the oven.

[@lescargos51]

Can I use margarine instead of butter?

[@rahmakamhawi7542]

I did the same steps as you but my dough is much softer why?

[@abakingjourney]

Did you chill it properly?

[@MaryYoham]

Hello how do you call those rings that uses to cut the dough? Thank you

[@sylviegruber3292]

Cookie Cutter ;)

[@kimtee8961]

I've been looking for a tart shell recipe that uses shortening but everyone seems to use butter.

[@sulamitadelacruz5897]

@kimtee8961 you could probably substitute the butter for shortening (1:1) but I’d add some butter extract so it has some flavor

[@mesolehelen6088]

You can use cooking oil in place of Butter

[@kimtee8961]

@@mesolehelen6088 The same quantity with the same results?

[@mesolehelen6088]

@@kimtee8961 yea about 70g of oil or 80g
