- 1
For the filling: In a saucepan, combine mashed plantains, butter, nutmeg, salt, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Cook over low flame for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- 2
Add the red food coloring (if using) and stir well. Remove from heat and let the filling cool completely.
- 3
For the dough: Sift flour and salt into a large mixing bowl. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- 4
Gradually add ice-cold water, mixing until a dough forms. Knead briefly until smooth. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- 5
Preheat oven to 400ยฐF (200ยฐC). Roll out the dough and cut into 8 circles (about 4-5 inches in diameter).
- 6
Place a portion of the cooled plantain filling onto one half of each dough circle, leaving a small border.
- 7
Fold the other half of the dough over the filling to create a crescent shape. Crimp the edges with a fork to seal.
- 8
Place the tarts on a baking sheet. Brush with egg wash. Cut a small slit in the top of each tart to allow steam to escape.
- 9
Bake for 30-45 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.

- โUse very ripe plantains for the sweetest filling.
- โEnsure the dough is well-chilled for a flaky crust.
