Recipe of Easy shortbread with leavening flour

Vida Recetas Editorial

The pasta frola is one of the most beloved tarts in Argentina and Uruguay, and this version with leavening flour makes it even easier. Also known as pastafrolla in Italian, this tart of Italian origin is characterized by its crumbly dough and quince paste filling, though you can use sweet potato or dulce de leche. This recipe is ideal for beginners because it requires no kneading or long resting times, only a chill in the fridge to make the dough manageable. The result is an artisan tart with a tender dough that melts in your mouth and a sweet, aromatic filling. Perfect for an afternoon snack, paired with coffee or mate. If you are looking for an easy and delicious tart, this is your choice.
