99 Jam Puffs

Oven, in the book's wordsA quick oven

Ingredients

Directions

The book says “a quick oven”. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Spread a thin layer of flaky crust over a baking tin.

  3. Cover the crust with a layer of jam.

  4. Wet the edges of the crust, then cover the jam with more pastry.

  5. Mark the edges and cut the top into squares.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until golden.

  7. Cut into pieces and serve piled high on a dish.
