DIRECTIONS

1. Grease six individual 10cm fluted loose-bottomed tart tins.
2. Cut each pastry sheet into four squares; line tins with six of the squares, reserve remaining two.
3. Press pastry into sides of tins; trim edges, prick all over with fork. Cover; refrigerate 20 minutes.
4. Preheat oven to moderate (180°C/160°C fan-forced).
5. Place tins on oven tray; cover pastry with baking paper, fill with dried beans or rice. Bake, uncovered, in moderate oven 10 minutes.
6. Remove paper and beans carefully from tins; bake in moderate oven about 5 minutes or until tart shells brown lightly. Cool to room temperature.
7. Combine syrup, rind, Kellogg's® Corn Flakes and pecans in medium bowl; divide mixture between tart shells.
8. Cut remaining pastry into 1cm strips. Twist each strip and lay across filling to form a criss-cross pattern. Brush pastry with egg.
9. Bake, uncovered, in moderate oven about 20 minutes until browned. Stand 5 minutes before removing from tins.
10. Serve warm with crème fraîche or vanilla ice-cream if desired.

Tip: you can use the same ingredients to make one whole tart. Line a greased 22cm pie dish with one of the pastry sheets; follow step 2.
Fill tart case with Corn flake filling; cut remaining pastry into strips and make lattice top. Bake, uncovered, in moderate oven about 25 minutes until browned.
