These are called Maids of Honour in the real world, but my kids like to call them jammy jobs and the name has stuck. They are little jam tarts with a light sponge topping. Very morish, so much so that I have to double the recipe every time!
Ingredients:
6 ounces shortcrust pastry (i make my own but you could always use shop bought)
jam
2 ounces margarine or 2 ounces butter
2 ounces caster sugar
2 ounces self raising flour
1 egg
Directions:
1. Roll out pastry thinly cutting rounds using a 3 cutter and line 16-18 pastry tins.
2. Place a little jam in each.
3. Cream margarine and sugar,.
4. Fold in beaten egg and flour.
5. Place a small spoonful of mixture into each case sealing in the jam.
6. Bake in a moderatly hot oven 200c 400f Gas 6 for 15-20 minutes.
